Location

This site is currently being researched by Mike Greffen who has been in contact with Kay Lawson of the Geophysical Institute, University of Alaska, Fairbanks. The University of Alaska has a research hut located in Inuvik and we are currently trying to determine if this site is appropriate for a THEMIS GBO. We have also been in touch with the Auroral Research Institute (see the Miscellaneous section below) which is located in Inuvik.
