Facilities
The Advanced Instrumentation Laboratory (AIL) at the University of 有料盒子视频 Fairbanks is a multi-instrument resource for the state of 有料盒子视频. It specializes in surface and elemental analysis as well as electron microscopy. In addition to the instrumentation it also houses support sample preparation facilities. AIL is located on the 有料盒子视频 campus in the Reichardt Building.
The Department maintains a computer lab for student and faculty use for coursework and research.
The Geochronology Laboratory at 有料盒子视频 conducts research in determining the ages of rocks and minerals using the 40Ar/39Ar step-heating dating method. Major areas of research emphasis include determining the tectonic history of 有料盒子视频 and adjacent Russia, determining the relationship between plutonism and ore mineralization and determining the eruptive history of 有料盒子视频's volcanoes.
The Department of Geology and Geophysics offers poster printing services to students and faculty in our department, and supports poster presentations by students in several CNSM department courses.
The Department of Geology and Geophysics also has a wide format scanner that can scan documents up to a width of 44 inches. Its use is free to students and faculty of the department.
The remote sensing group Spectroscopy Lab focuses on geological and ecological research. The purpose of the facility is to train students, support remote sensing research through ground calibration/validation data collection, and to collaborate with state and private industry.
The Spencer Library is located in 306 Reichardt Building. It is available for university-related
meetings when not in use by the department. The projector connection to your laptop
