Satellite tracking data for post-nesting green turtles from Northwest Florida (2002-2020)

Description

This dataset includes processed satellite tracking data collected from green turtles between July 2002 and October 2020 in the Gulf of Mexico. Tracks were located along the west coast of Florida from the Florida Keys to the Gulf Islands National Seashore. Output from the state-space model (SSM) described in Lamont et al. (2023) is included, as are inter-nesting and foraging centroids calculated using kernel density estimates and minimum convex polygons.
