Validation of back‐calculated body lengths and timing of growth mark deposition in Hawaiian green sea turtles

Somatic growth rate data for wild sea turtles can provide insight into life‐stage durations, time to maturation, and total lifespan. When appropriately validated, the technique of skeletochronology allows prior growth rates of sea turtles to be calculated with considerably less time and labor than r...
