<b>Impact of light pollution on the success of loggerhead turtle nesting in Chebba, Tunisia</b>

Despite being often considered minor, the Chebba nesting beaches significantly contribute to regional reproductive output and genetic diversity. These beaches deserve targeted conservation measures to reduce light pollution through targeted actions, including shielding or eliminating lights visible from the beach, using red-spectrum lamps, and implementing awareness campaigns. This underscores the need for conservation measures to safeguard these small but ecologically valuable nesting sites.

Abstract

Despite being often considered minor, the Chebba nesting beaches significantly contribute to regional reproductive output and genetic diversity. These beaches deserve targeted conservation measures to reduce light pollution through targeted actions, including shielding or eliminating lights visible from the beach, using red-spectrum lamps, and implementing awareness campaigns. This underscores the need for conservation measures to safeguard these small but ecologically valuable nesting sites.
