Algonquin turtles

In the Rollinson Lab, I was responsible for digitizing decades of turtle observations from Algonquin Park. Since 1972, reproduction data of Snapping Turtles, Painted Turtles, Wood Turtles and Blanding’s Turtles have been collected. Data includes information on nesting behaviour, turtle hatching, growth, and more, and is valuable for investigating turtle life history. I interpreted and standardized observations, and entered it into a large database which comprised of decades of data. Read more about the long-term study here.
