Arctic Institute ,
Plans Research at
Pt. Barrow Soon
A search for the world’s oldest
insect relics, a study of factors re
lated to “polar blackouts” in radio
communication, and investiga
tions of the hydrobiology of Can
adian waters are among the field
research projects planned for this
summer by the Arctic Institute of
North America.
The 22 investigations just an
nounced bring to more than 180
the field research projects spon
sored by the institute since its
founding ten years ago. They will
be supported by the Office of Na
val Research, the Sir Frederick
Banting Fund, and private con
tributors.
One-third of the projects will
be b^sed at the Arctic Research
Laboratory of the Office of Naval
Research, Point Barrow, Alaska,
northernmost laboratory on U.S.
soil. Others will be scattered
throughout Alaska and northern
Canada. They will include studies
in geology, glaciology, biology, or
nithology, soil formation and tun
dra vegetation. Nine of the proj
ects for 1955 are in the field of
hydrobiology.
The geophysical investigations
aimed at a better understanding
of disturbances in radio transmis
sion will form part of a general
program to be conducted at the
Magnetic Observatory at Point
Barrow by C. T. Elvey, director
of the Geophysical Institute, Col
lege, Alaska. Sensitive antennae
will be used to record the relative
strength of radio waves from out
er space, and possible correlations
made with polar blackouts.
Other geophysical studies will
include observations of the rela
tionship between auroral displays
and disturbances in the earth’s
magnetic field; and studies of
ground conductivity in the vicini
ty of Point Barrow.
