在过去的30年里，海龟的地位和保护海龟和恢复海龟数量的需要越来越引起许多政府机构、非政府组织和公众的兴趣（Raustiala 1997，Wright & Mohanty 2006，坎贝尔2007）。这种兴趣与越来越多的研究关注相匹配，这些研究关注与海龟生物学和保护有关的各种主题，包括与它们生活的物理和生物环境的相互关系，以及与这些元素相关的人类因素（Avise 2007年，坎贝尔和Cornwell 2008年）。事实上，在过去的30年里，每年都有一个专门讨论海龟生物学和保护的研讨会;最近，研讨会每年有大约300个演讲，与会者来自6大洲的80多个国家（见www.seaturtlesociety.org）。越来越多的同行评议文献同样反映了海龟研究的增长，ISI Web of Science报告了2006年至2009年在搜索“海龟”或“海龟”和“保护区”时的813项研究项目。在过去的30年里，海龟的状况以及保护海龟以帮助恢复海龟数量的必要性越来越引起政府机构的兴趣，非政府组织（NGO）和世界各地的公众。与这种兴趣相匹配的是，研究的注意力也在增加，重点是与海龟生物学和生态学有关的各种各样的专题，以及海龟与物理和自然环境的相互关系。虽然对海龟的研究比大多数其他海洋动物更深入，但由于缺乏关于海龟生物学、人与海龟的相互作用、海龟种群状况和威胁的数据，管理行动和对海龟的评价往往受到阻碍。为了有效地保护海龟，根据来自13个国家从事海龟生物学和/或保护领域工作的35名海龟研究人员的意见，汇编了一份优先研究问题清单。贡献的研究人员的综合经验跨越了地球仪以及涉及保护研究的许多相关学科。从受访者收集的200多个问题的初始列表被浓缩为20个元问题，并分为5类：生殖生物学，地理学，种群生态学，威胁和保护策略。未经出版商书面同意，不得转售或再版
INTRODUCTION Over the past 30 years, the status of sea turtles and the need for their protection and population recovery have increasingly captured the interest of many government agencies, non-governmental organisations (NGOs) and the general public (Raustiala 1997, Wright & Mohanty 2006, Campbell 2007). This interest has been matched with increased research attention, which focuses on a wide variety of topics relating to sea turtle biology and conservation, including the interrelations with the physical and biological environments in which they live, and the human dimensions associated with these elements (Avise 2007, Campbell & Cornwell 2008). Indeed, for the last 3 decades there has been an annual symposium dedicated to sea turtle biology and conservation; recently the symposium has had roughly 300 presentations annually, with atten-dees from over 80 countries across 6 continents (see www.seaturtlesociety.org). The growing body of peer-reviewed literature has equally reflected the increase in sea turtle research, with the ISI Web of Science reporting 813 research items from 2006 to 2009 in a search for 'sea turtle' or 'marine turtle' and 'conserva-ABSTRACT: Over the past 3 decades, the status of sea turtles and the need for their protection to aid population recovery have increasingly captured the interest of government agencies, non-governmental organisations (NGOs) and the general public worldwide. This interest has been matched by increased research attention, focusing on a wide variety of topics relating to sea turtle biology and ecology, together with the interrelations of sea turtles with the physical and natural environments. Although sea turtles have been better studied than most other marine fauna, management actions and their evaluation are often hindered by the lack of data on turtle biology, human–turtle interactions , turtle population status and threats. In an effort to inform effective sea turtle conservation a list of priority research questions was assembled based on the opinions of 35 sea turtle researchers from 13 nations working in fields related to turtle biology and/or conservation. The combined experience of the contributing researchers spanned the globe as well as many relevant disciplines involved in conservation research. An initial list of more than 200 questions gathered from respondents was condensed into 20 metaquestions and classified under 5 categories: reproductive biology, biogeography, population ecology, threats and conservation strategies.
