“…Ontogenetic habitat shifts are particularly common in marine organisms and are widespread among a variety of vertebrates (Price and Grant, 1984;Fishelson et al, 1987;Lind and Welsh, 1994;Kitowski, 2003;Page et al, 2005). Marine turtles undergo multiple ontogenetic habitat shifts (Bolten, 2003b;McClellan and Read, 2007;Snover, 2008) as they migrate across ocean basins and along coastal zones (Dodd and Byles, 2003;Eckert et al, 2006;Foley et al, 2008;Girard et al, 2009). Various pelagic or benthic communities serve as temporary homes at different stages and within a single stage of their life cycle (Witzell, 2002;Bolten, 2003a;Polovina et al, 2006;Casale et al, 2008;Witherington et al, 2012).…”
