Abstract
The second annual Northeast Paleomagnetics Workshop was held at Lehigh University on September 24. The meeting provided an informal forum for students to practice presenting their work and for workers to discuss the nuts and bolts of doing paleomagnetism. The first paleomagnetics workshop was held in September 1987 at Syracuse University under Peter Plumley's direction.More than 30 students and researchers from 14 institutions in the northeastern U.S. and southeastern Canada attended the conference, with 17 participants giving short presentations. Looser time constraints than typically observed at AGU meetings allowed uninhibited discussion during and after each of the talks. Topics covered ranged from interpreting Taconic overprints and recognizing strain and remagnetization in Appalachian rocks to the effects of overlapping coercivity spectra on directional distributions, AMS instrumentation problems, and the confidence interval about the angle between 2 poles.
