	<abstract>The MTCP have placed 22 satellite trackers on green turtles since 1998 which have revealed several major foraging areas within the Mediterranean.  However, recent research using stable isotope analysis suggest that an important foraging area may have been missed due to chance.  Therefore, MTCP have taken the opportunity to attach satellite trackers to 5 turtles which the stable isotopes suggest forage in the area of interest.</abstract><supplinf>Visit STAT's project page for additional information at http://www.seaturtle.org/tracking/index.shtml?project_id=1107</supplinf></descript><timeperd><timeinfo><rngdates><begdate>20150630</begdate><enddate>20151123</enddate></rngdates></timeinfo><current>ground condition</current></timeperd><status><progress>Complete</progress><update>As needed</update></status><spdom><descgeog>Ocean</descgeog><bounding><westbc>32.788</westbc><eastbc>36.437</eastbc><northbc>35.782</northbc><southbc>30.993</southbc></bounding>

4. The burden for determining fitness for use of the downloaded data for any analyses lies entirely with the user. OBIS-SEAMAP or the original data providers do not support outcomes of your analyses that used the data you downloaded from OBIS-SEAMAP.

5. To consider inclusion of the accompanying transect (effort) dataset if available into the methodology of your analyses.

6. Not to redistribute the data you downloaded from OBIS-SEAMAP through any media without contect from OBIS-SEAMAP and the original data providers unless the datasets are explicitly shown under the CC0 policy.</useconst><ptcontac>
