The material represents a synthesis of the field research by the authors and their colleagues. Starting in 1984, this research continues as part of the UNESCO-IGCP Project 261 for Stromatolite Research and the long-term geological program of the Caribbean Marine Research Center (CMRC). The Appendix to this guidebook also provides a description of the field support facilities at the CMRC on Lee Stocking Island and suggestions for the equipment needed to enhance your threeday stay in the Bahamas.
