Description: During the German-Canadian Nares Strait Expedition in 2001, an aeromagnetic survey was carried out across the northern part of the Nares Strait including the Hall Basin, Judge Daly Promontory and in Robeson Channel in cooperation with the Canadian GSC. The aim of the research was to detect and localize the Wegener Fault, a transform fault between Ellesmere Island and NW Greenland, which is closely linked to the opening of the North Atlantic and the Arctic Ocean. The helicopter-borne magnetic survey NARES I (Robeson Channel) was carried out with a flight line spacing of 2 km, and control profiles were flown every 10 km. During the expedition, 5470 km of line data were collected. The aeromagnetic data were recorded by a magnetometer, which was towed approx. 25 m beneath the helicopter and recorded at a constant altitude of 305 m (1000 ft) above ground.
