The year in focus, 1999

Abstract

In 1999 field activities in Greenland by the Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland (GEUS) were at a slightly lower level than in 1998, but still involved 85 persons including 27 from the Danish Lithosphere Centre (DLC); these figures include guest scientists from within and outside Denmark. Of the Survey’s total normal staff of 356, 87 were focused on Greenland-related activities. The key statistics of human and financial resources for the years 1998 and 1999 are summarised in Table 1.
