Author: Vincent Greenwade ESC Phone: 321-853-3252 The Cape Canaveral Air Station (CCAS) comprises 21 kilometers of Atlantic coastal beach along the eastern seashore of Florida. This area provides a prime nesting habitat for threatened and endangered sea turtles. GIS technology is currently being used to determine areas of concerns and to assess the impacts on new and current AF operations. This paper addresses a series of management strategies that are designed to protect sea turtles and their nests and documents the effectiveness of these efforts. |
