Abstract
AS part of the research programme for the International Geophysical Year, recording of very low-frequency phenomena was initiated at Godhavn, Greenland, on July 19, 1957. The geomagnetic co-ordinates for Godhavn are 79.8 N., 32.5 E. The station is situated 950 km. south-east of the geomagnetic pole and approximately 1800 km. north-east of the dip-pole.
