The objectives of this season's Beacon Studies project (K047) were to:
| a) | Resolve the apparently enigmatic occupance of sheet sandstones in a meandering river sequence observed during the 1988-89 field season (Woolfe 1989*) |
| b) | To determine the process responsible for the formation of hummocky cross stratification and swaley cross stratification in a nonmarine regime. |
| c) | To document and sample for paleoclimatic studies the extensively exposed Permian high-latitude forest. |
| d) | To produce a 1:20,000 scale geological map of Allan Hills and an accompanying text. |
