Binder 4: Miskito Bank Expedition, Nicaragua, October-November 1977 is a research binder created by Dr. John C. Ogden with a collection of materials related to his research expedition with colleagues to Miskito Bank, Nicaragua, aboard the R/V [Research Vessel] Alpha Helix from October 13, 1977 to November 18, 1977. Research during this mission included studies on seagrasses, fish, sea urchins, and the green sea turtle (Chelonia mydas). The researchers also interacted significantly with the Miskito people, a Central American indigenous group who have historically fished in the area of the Miskito Cays. Materials in this binder include daily narrative logs, data sheets, maps, planning and logistics related documents, and 35mm photographic film projector slides.
