Press Feature: These Sea Turtles Are Collecting Ocean Data for Scientists
Inside: “Sea Turtle Biology and Behavior” - by Gabriel Stephenson, SERC/ACT Network
February 10, 2026
CFF’s Mid-Atlantic sea turtle research was recently highlighted in an article by Gabriel Stephenson (SERC/ACT Network). The article explores how the project has evolved from reducing sea turtle bycatch in the offshore scallop fishery into a highly collaborative research effort using telemetry, biological sampling, and oceanographic sensors to better understand turtle behavior, movement, and changing ocean conditions.
CFF’s Sea Turtle Project is helping answer critical questions about turtle behavior, ocean conditions, and how animals may interact with offshore wind energy development in the Mid-Atlantic.
