Abstract
The risk of mortality to sea turtles with increasing trawl tow time was assessed in two seasons, summer and winter. Tows of 10 min or less had negligible mortality in both seasons while intermediate tow times resulted in rapid escalations in mortality before reaching a plateau of high mortality. Mortality increased more quickly in winter than in summer.
