Continuing the work started by Boyd N. Lyon, this fund was created by family and loved ones in association with The Ocean Foundation to provide support to those projects that enhance our understanding of sea turtle conservation, behavior, habitat needs, abundance, spatial and temporal distribution and research diving safety.
