THE LAND Geography T his archipelago in the south western Indian Ocean is made up of 115 islands, 42 of granite and 73 of coral, dotted across a vast 1.3 million sq. km of clear turquoise water teeming with marine life. The total land area of Seychelles is 455.3 sq. km. There are three distinct geological areas in Seychelles: - Sand-clays (on the Amirantes, to the south west); and - Limestone islands (on the outer Seychelles islands, including Aldabra, Cosmoledo, Farquhar, Astove etc.). where the world-renowned coco-de-mer grows naturally. La Digue is only a short boat ride away from Praslin. It is the home of a nature reserve dedicated to the paradise flycatcher. Seychelles' mid-ocean granitic islands offer an impressive topography of mountains sloping into the sea. Climate The tropical climate is fresh, despite the Seychelles proximity to the equator. Seasons are defined by the beginning and end of the south east trade winds which usually blow from May to September when the temperature ranges from 24 to 30 degrees Celsius. For the rest of the year, the north west monsoon winds bring tropical rainfall, higher humidity and temperatures up to a maximum of 32 degrees Celsius. Seychelles lies outside the cyclone belt and enjoys stable weather year round.

Field Classes Seychelles Field Class 2002 In March 2002 an intrepid group of Geography students from the University of Sussex visited the Seychelles for the first time. Here are some of the things they got up to (and don't forget to enter the competition at the end...): La Passe on Silhouette, our home for the first 10 days. The island was considered to be so remote that it was used as a location for the Spanish version of Survivor. The locals liked the pier so much that they asked the TV company to leave it behind once they'd finished filming (whereas we just liked to swim off it...). We arrived on Silhouette by boat (trying not to run over too many flying fish on the way...) Our accommodation can be seen in this shot, nestling amongst the palms next to the old Colonial Plantation House. If you look very closely, you can just make out Sussex Faculty swinging in their hammocks... Whilst on the island, much of our fieldwork involved trekking into the tropical forest, where the unique biodiversity of the tropics revealed itself in myriad ways... Giant millipedes are one expression of evolutionary processes operating within tropical island ecosystems, as are giant tortoises (some of which may be over 150 years old), which can be seen roaming parts of Silhouette. Having seen a thing or two in their time, one or two were not above commenting on the fashion sense of certain students...

News Sussex students discover new species of spider in the Seychelles As film buffs queue to watch the new Spider-man movie, geography students from the University of Sussex have gone one better by discovering a new species of spider in the wild. The second year undergraduates were taking part in a field course to the Seychelles, one of the most biologically diverse places on the planet. As part of this trip the students were responsible for helping to set insect traps in the Vallée de Mai, a UNESCO World Heritage Site on Praslin, the second-largest island in the main Seychelles group. An undisturbed tract of palm forest, the area is renowned for being home to the remarkable Coco de Mer double coconut, as well as vanilla orchids and a host of rare birds and lizards. Because of its fame, the site is frequently visited by biologists and, as a result, is one of the most-sampled places on the islands. Students explore the Vallée de Mai, Seychelles The flora and fauna of the valley is incredibly diverse, and currently forms part of a study being undertaken by the Nature Protection Trust of the Seychelles (with whom the students were working) as part of their conservation work on the islands. To the delight of the students, the contents of the insect traps revealed a species of spider that is completely new to science. Named

Practical Information Seychelles history, geography, economy and ecology History Though the islands may have been known to Arab traders, they lay undiscovered until chartered by the Portuguese in the early 16 th century. The first recorded landing was by the British East India Company in 1608, but it was the French who first lay claim to the islands in 1756 and settled in 1770. At the conclusion of the Napoleonic wars, Mauritius was ceded to Britain together with its dependencies including Seychelles. In 1903, Seychelles became a separate crown colony. The International Airport opened in 1971 and Seychelles obtained from Britain its independence in 1976 . It has a multi-party democratic constitution, and the current Head of State is President France Albert Rene. Geology Two hundred million years ago, the supercontinent of Pangaea united all the world’s land masses. As these slid apart, Pangaea was wrenched into two, with Laurasia to the north and Gondwanaland to the south. Gondwana split in two also and later India and Madagascar separated from Africa. At the apex where these last three land masses met, a fragment of Eden was cast adrift. These are not just the only granite islands in the world, they are also the oldest islands of any ocean. For all but the tiniest fraction of their history, they lay forgotten and untouched. Now they may be visited and acclaimed by the world for what they are, a unique paradise. In addition, a string of perfect islands and coral atolls lie beyond the granitic group and form part of Seychelles. These include

Geography and Climate History The Republic of Seychelles consists of over 116 islands scattered over 1 million square kilometres of sea in the middle of the Western Indian Ocean. The Seychelles arc hipelago is divided into two distinct collections: the Mahe group, 43 islands in all, granitic with high hills and mountains and the outlying islands ; and the corralline group numbering 73 or more and for the most part only a little above sea-level. Mahe the most important island lies between 4 degrees south latitude and 55 degrees east longitude. It is 27 kms long and 11kms wide rising abruptly from the sea to a maximum altitude of 905 meters in the mountain of Morne Seychellois. Two other islands of major importance as regards to size and population are Praslin, 33.6 kms from Mahe , and home to the unique Coco de Mer and La Digue 48 kms away, with its bullock cart transport and the only remaining sanctuary of the “veuve”- the Seychelles Black paradise flycatcher. In spite of the close proximity of Seychelles to the Equator, the climate is healthy. The shade temperature varies little throughout the year and the hottest months being March to April and the coolest being July and August. The rainfall varies considerably from island to island and from year to year. Most of the rainfall occurs duringthe hot months when the northwest trade winds blows. The islands are outside the hurricane zone and thunder storms are rare and mild when they do occur.
