| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Conditions of captured sea turtles and its recovery process from escaping were analyzed for the evaluation of the effectiveness of the turtle releasing system for the setnet. The physiological state (blood properties and heart rate) and behavior of the loggerhead and green turtles were measured with using an ECG logger, an acceleration logger, and a blood property analyzer, and compared in normal times, before escape, and after escape. In both species, the heart rate increased remarkably during the push-up behavior during bycatch, but gradually decreased after escaping the net, and after about 1 day, the heart rate, blood lactate level, and carbon dioxide partial pressure level all returned to normal levels.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
漁業における混獲問題は，生物多様性保全や生態系の維持を踏まえた持続的な生産体制の構築において極めて重要な課題であるが，混獲回避手法の開発が十分でなく，また混獲状態から逃れた個体の健康状態の把握による有効性の評価例は皆無であった。本研究では，これまで困難であったウミガメ類の心拍計測技術を構築するとともに，心拍数の変動と活動量との関係を整理し，さらに心拍数と血液性状の推移から混獲回避手法の有効性を評価する手法を提示した点で非常に意義深いものである。
