This study reports reference intervals and correlations of blood analytes of oceanic-juvenile loggerhead sea turtles from Azorean waters with body size and comparison of data to neritic loggerheads from the US Atlantic coast. The observed findings highlight conservation-relevant biological (e.g. diet, somatic growth) and habitat differences among both populations.
