Özet
Nesting beaches have a critical role in the life cycle of sea turtles and their survival. Many different factors affect nest site selection, ranging from the composition of the sand to the vegetation of the beach. These factors are subject to change due to the onset of climate change. We aimed to determine the possible changes in nesting beaches according to the future climate scenarios of Chelonia mydas nesting sites in the Mediterranean by ecological niche modeling. Nineteen bioclimatic variables and Representative Concentration Pathway scenarios (RCP2.6 and RCP8.5) were used to generate past, current, and future nesting site projections. The datasets were prepared with ArcGIS v10. and bioclimatic variables were analyzed using the Pearson Correlation Analysis. The ecological niche modeling was made with the MaxEnt v4.1.0. Model outputs, mean temperature of warmest quarter (22.01 %), precipitation of …
