Summary:
Dr. Kyle requested UNAVCO support for both campaign and permanent station GPS activities on Mt. Erebus to measure 
the deformation of the volcano caused by the migration of magma. Two Trimble 5700/R7 and one 4700 receivers were provided 
to the field team for mapping activities and campaign occupations. UNAVCO also continued involvement in maintenance of the 
permanent GPS network on Erebus. The Trimble NetRS at site CONZ was replaced because of a faulty flashcard. Modifications 
to the repeater antenna were made and batteries for the repeater radio were added by UNAVCO. The Trimble R7 receiver at 
Abbott Peak was downloaded at the beginning and end of the season. Data from the seven telemetered Erebus permanent stations 
are downloaded daily to McMurdo Station, and transferred to the UNAVCO data archive where they are on-line to the science community.
