0320976GeissMajor Research Instrumentation Porgram (MRI) support will be used to acquire basic rock-magnetic instrumentation consisting of a JR-6A automated dual speed spinner magnetometer, a KLY-3 static Kappabridge, and a Magnon International AF demagnetizer. The instruments will allow undergraduate students at Trinity College (Hartford, CT) and neighboring institutions (e.g., Wesleyan University, Mt. Holyoke College) to analyze rock and sediment specimen for studies in rock- and environmental magnetism. Projects that will benefit from these aquisitions include the study of loessic soils from the Great Plains, paleomagnetic investigations of Triassic basalts, and multi-proxy paleoclimate studies of lake sediments from Connecticut and Alaska.***

0320976 GeissMajor Research Instrumentation Porgram（MRI）支持将用于获取基本的岩石磁性仪器，包括JR-6A自动双速旋转磁力计、KLY-3静态Kappabridge和Magnon International AF消磁器。 这些仪器将允许Trinity学院（哈特福德，CT）和邻近机构（例如，卫斯理大学霍利奥克学院）分析岩石和沉积物标本，用于岩石和环境磁学研究。 将受益于这些蓄水的项目包括研究大平原的黄土土壤，三叠纪玄武岩的古地磁调查，以及康涅狄格州和阿拉斯加州湖泊沉积物的多代理古气候研究。
