It's within this steady environment that the rich and varied web of life in today's seas has arisen and flourished. But research shows that this ancient balance is being undone by a recent and rapid drop in surface pH that could have devastating global consequences..

This lesson explains the life cycle of sea turtles focusing on specific aspects of the loggerhead sea turtle life cycle. The Southeastern U.S. has the largest nesting aggregation of loggerhead sea turtles. Sea turtles are also charismatic .
