Description
Summary:The Arctic Ocean north of Greenland is a relatively unexplored area. FRAM I was a research station established on drifting pack ice to carry out geological, geophysical, oceanographic and biological studies in this region. This report contains geophysical data collected at the FRAM I drifting station. These data include station positions determined by satellite navigation, echo soundings, ice floe azimuths, magnetic declination and gravity readings.
