Biotelemetry using the Argos satellite system was conducted for the second consecutive year in the Hawaiian Islands to determine migratory routes, swimming behaviors, and resident foraging pastures of green turtles, Chelonia mydas, nesting at French Frigate Shoals. In addition, in a cooperative study with the American Samoa Government, transmitters were deployed in the South Pacific during 1993 on green turtles nesting at Rose Atoll, the easternmost island of the Samoan Archipelago.
