V. SUMMARY OF FINDINGS 



As would be expected with seamounts of volcanic origin, there 

 is a close correlation of the total intensity contours of the geo- 

 magnetic field with the bathymetric contours of the New England 

 Seamounts . 



As a result of computer computations of Kelvin Seamount, there 

 is an indication that the seamounts are highly magnetized and have 

 a large component of remanent magnetization. The remanence of 

 Kelvin Seamount is not in the direction of the present inducing field. 

 The calculated location of the North Magnetic Pole at the time of 

 formation of Kelvin Seamount was found to conform with positions 

 derived from other paleomagnetic studies. 



A previously uncharted seamount was discovered at N 38°25' and 

 W 62°11'. A second seamount, which had been removed from bathy- 

 metric charts because of uncertainty of data, was relocated west 

 of Nashville Seamount.
