Abstract:
Aegina is a cooperation project between Gobierno de Canarias (Spain) and Republic of Cabo Verde; the main goal of the project is to propose a management plan for the Protected Marine Areas important for the sea turtles at both archipelagos.<br>In the Canary Islands there lives an important juvenile stock of loggerheads, and in Cabo Verde archipelago occurs one of the largest nesting populations of loggerheads in the world.<br>Five transmitters will be deployed on males of the Cabo Verde nesting population, complementary with the ongoing studies of females by Marine Turtle Research Group (Brendan Godley, Lucy Hawkes; see also at Turtle Track). Another ten transmitters will be deployed on juvenile loggerheads in Canary Islands.

摘要：
阿埃吉纳项目是西班牙加那利群岛政府与佛得角共和国之间的合作项目，其核心目标为针对两个群岛海域内对海龟具有重要保护价值的海洋保护区制定专项管理方案。<br><br>加那利群岛海域栖息着重要的幼龄红海龟（loggerheads）种群，而佛得角群岛则拥有全球规模最大的红海龟筑巢种群之一。<br><br>研究团队将为佛得角筑巢种群的雄性红海龟部署5台卫星追踪器，同时辅以海洋海龟研究组（Marine Turtle Research Group，由Brendan Godley、Lucy Hawkes主导；详见Turtle Track）针对雌性红海龟的现有研究。此外，还将在加那利群岛海域为幼龄红海龟部署10台卫星追踪器。
