The 46th Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition (JARE-46) conducted field operations on geological and paleomagnatic studies in the regions of Lutzow-Holm Bay, Prince Olav Coast and western Enderby Land during December 17, 2004 through February 17, 2005, under a part of the SEAL II (Structure and Evolution of East Antarctic Lithosphere II) project. A small helicopter was used to support field parties during the summer operations conducted by JARE-46. This report summarizes preparations for field operations and activities of the geological and paleo-magnetic team, and points out some problems for the future planning.
