Seismic Measurements on The Faeroe Islands, 1970
115
Acknowledgements
I wish to thank Professor S. Saxov and Statsgeolog J. Ras-
mussen for their invaluable help in planning the field work.
The seismic team on »Meteor« under the leadership of Mr.
W. Weigel carried out the work on sea in an excellenit cooper-
ation with the landstations. Thereby the use of »Meteor« ship
radio and a special service of the telegraph station in Tórs-
havn were very successful.
I should also like to express my gratitude to all the parti-
cipants in the field work. They strived hard for getting good
results.
This work was supported by a grant from Aarhus Uni-
versitets Forskningsfond.

Skjálvtafrøðiligar dýpdarkanningar vóru gjørdar í samvinnu við lærda
háskúlan í Hambung (Institut fur die Physik des Erdkorpers) á rygginum
millum Føroya og Islands í døgunum 9. til 14. juli 1970. Við tveggja-skipa-
háttinum vóru skjálvtafrøðiligar afturvarp- og brotmátingar gjørdar á
sjónum. í Streymoy fylgdu 4 landstøðir við spreingingunum á sjónum.
Uppsetingar av skjálvtaritunum frá landstøð nr. 2 eru sýndar. Einans
