Aeromagnetic surveys were conducted in the Yamato Mountains and the Meteorite Ice Field region in 1975 and 1980,using Cessna A185F and Pilatus Porter PC-6 aircrafts respectively. Distribution of geomagnetic anomaly in this area obtained from those surveys is thought to be correlated mostly with the subglacial topography other than types or magnetic susceptibility of bedrocks.
