During my time at the University of Oslo, I conducted a project with a geologist working on the paleomagnetism of the Devonian period. I studied rocks from Woodfjorden, Svalbard that were from the Old Red Sandstone Sequence, which is of early Devonian age. The samples were collected as hand samples in the summer of 2023. I drilled cores from the hand samples and made powdered samples. Using the powdered samples I measured magnetic susceptibility using the AGICO MFK1-FA Kappabridge, using the same machine, I measured the anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility.
