Dear all,
This message is to inform all of you that there will be a special
session
on High-resolution Magnetic Anomaly Surveys in the Division V of IAGA
(G5.07) at the international meeting which will be held in Hanoi,
Vietnam, on August 19-31, 2001. This session will focus on new advances
in the acquisition and processing of magnetic data, showing improvements
in the technology and new developments in the methodologies used in
magnetic processing. Papers are sought to address advances in
differential GPS techniques, improved techniques in magnetic surveys (eg
airbone surveys) and enhanced processing methods. We particularly
welcome case studies illustrating the advantages gained by the use of
new techniques and methods, as well as examples of how these surveys can
be used to delineate geological features.
Information on the IAGA/IASPEI meeting in Hanoi can be found on the web
at
http://www.IAGAandIASPEI.org.vn. Please note that the abstract
submission
deadline is March 1, 2001. Instructions on abstract submission are
available at http://www.iagaandiaspei.org.vn/abstract.htm.
Included in this e-mail is the session description, this information is
also available on the web. Please pass on this message along to any
interested colleagues who may not be on this list.. We would like to
encourage students to participate in this session. Please note that
there are a couple of travel grants that are offered to assist
participation to the meeting. The deadline for grant application is
March 1, 2001. Information on these grants can also be found on the web
at http://www.iagaandiaspei.org.vn/frame.htm.
Thank you for your time reading this message and we look forward to your
participation in this session.
Session description:
GV(WG9) - 7: High Resolution Magnetic Anomaly Surveys
Modern high resolution magnetic anomaly surveys have been made possible
by advances in differential GPS techniques, improved magnetometer
technology and
enhanced processing capabilities. Improvements in geological
interpretation
of such surveys are gained both from the improved spatial and frequency
resolution and the further processing techniques which can be applied
with greater confidence than was previously possible. Papers are sought
which illustrate all aspects of these high resolution surveys, from
acquisition,
processing and interpretation. Case studies highlighting the advantages
gained over conventional surveys are particularly welcome.
