Trip report on the marine turtle survey of the Maskelyne islands, Vanuatu 6-22 November 1992

This research and training expedition was organised in conjunction with the South Pacific Regional Environment Programme (SPREP) and the Vanuatu Environment Unit. The survey follows up a questionnaire written in Bislama and sent to various islands in the Vanuatu Archipelago in 1989/1990. A survey was scheduled for November 1991, but was postponed and then cancelled due to typhoon damage. The area designated to be surveyed, the Maskelyne Islands, was chosen from the information provided in response to the questionnaire.
