   personal_statement: For most of Edward Mankinen's 47-year career, he was associated
     with the Menlo Park Rock Magnetic Laboratory conducting various research projects
     in paleomagnetism/rock magnetism. Most of these studies were concentrated in
     the western U.S. but also included field work in Alaska, the Hawaiian Islands,
     and Antarctica. Beginning in 1996, Ed also became associated with the Geophysical
     Unit of Menlo Park (GUMP) and began conducting and interpreting gravity and
     aeromagnetic surveys. Most of these studies were conducted in and around the
     Nevada Test Site and in the eastern Great Basin. As an emeritus, he has continued
     work on projects in both disciplines.
