Summary:
Dr. Hall's group spent the 2006-2007 field season locating and excavating elephant seal remains near Explorers Cove and Cape Bird. 
A previous geologic field campaign discovered these remains, and yield information about the extent and habits of the seals in this area which they 
no longer inhabit. Climate records will also be extracted from the remains. UNAVCO provided two receivers, ancillary equipment and pre-field 
training to B068. They used GPS to mark the exact locations of the remains. UNAVCO also post-processed their data using permanent station 
data from the TAMDEF Cape Roberts and the G081M Truncated Cones GPS stations.
