Panaji, Mar 22 (PTI) In a bid to analysis data pertaining to environmental magnetism and magnetic stratigraphy (study of rock strata), the National Institute of Oceanography has set up a laboratory inside its premises here.
"The paleomagnetic (study of remanent magnetisation in rocks) laboratory facility, now available within the institute, is expected to be used frequently for detailed magnetic measurements of the sediment cores," according to NIO website.
The laboratory can help researchers in deducing meaningful geological interpretation, it states.
NIO is one of the 38 constituent laboratories of Council for Science and Industrial research (CSIR).
