The network encompasses the coastal areas of the eighteen state region from Maine through Texas, and includes portions of the U.S. Caribbean. Data are compiled through the efforts of network participants who document marine turtle strandings in their respective areas and contribute those data to the centralized STSSN database. The publicly available reports from this system provide summary or detailed information about the stranding information for a selected year and other chosen selection criteria. To provide reports on the stranding of marine turtles that occur on Atlantic and Gulf Coasts of the United States. underDevelopment Teas, Wendy G 305-361-4595 305-361-4478 75 Virginia Beach Dr Miami FL 33149 wendy.teas@noaa.gov pointOfContact Teas, Wendy G 305-361-4595 305-361-4478 75 Virginia Beach Dr Miami FL 33149 wendy.teas@noaa.gov phone or email custodian continual Turtles abundance esa fisheries-independent data hawksbill kemp's ridley turtle leatherback loggerhead turtle morbidity mortality olive ridley protective species stock structure strandings theme 1998-present temporal Atlantic Coast Carribean Gulf of Mexico place county month region species state year zone stratum DOC/NOAA/NMFS/SEFSC > Southeast Fisheries Science Center, National Marine Fisheries Service, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce dataCentre Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Data Center Keywords 2017-04-24 publication 8.5 Earth Science Data and Information System, Earth Science Projects Division, Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC), National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) https://forum.earthdata.nasa.gov/app.php/tag/GCMD%2BKeywords GCMD Keyword Forum Page Global Change Master Directory (GCMD). 2025.
