Principal Investigator: Jackson, Charlotte
Licensed Year(s): 1985
Summary: To sample igneous rocks for a paleomagnetic investigation, and to study geological field-relations of the same rocks in order to determine their age and relation tO the development and deformation of the surrounding geological provinces....

Principal Investigator: Wolfe, Allan
Licensed Year(s): 1985
Summary: To install a fluxgate magnetometer and 30MHz riometer to provide new information on hydromagnetic wave and particle precipitation phenomena occurring under varying interplanetary and geomagnetic conditions. This location is selected because it is in the "conjugate" area to the United States station at South Pole, Antarctica....

Principal Investigator: Deutsch, Ernst R.
Licensed Year(s): 1980
Summary: To undertake a study of the magnetism of very old rocks. This project will assist in identifying how far Greenland has drifted from continental Canada over the past 100 million years....

Principal Investigator: West, Robert M.
Licensed Year(s): 1980
Summary: A continuation of the Eureka Sound Formation. Rock and fossil samples will be collected. Rock sections will be taken and surveyed. Rock specimens will also be analysed for magnetism....

Principal Investigator: Samson, John Craig
Licensed Year(s): 1979
Summary: To measure certain types of waves in the earth's magnetic field. The occurrence of these waves may be able to be used to predict the onset of difficulties in radio communication and navigation....

Principal Investigator: Kim, J.S.
Licensed Year(s): 1978
Summary: To establish scientific data collection stations for the International Magnetospheric Study 1976-79....
