 abstract: 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.
