Research on green turtles in San Diego Bay that is being conducted by scientists from the Protected Resources Division was highlighted in a recent article
in the San Diego Union Tribune. The article focues on the potential impacts of the shut down of the South Bay Power Plant, which used to discharge warm water into the bay, on the population of green turtles that live in that area.
