****************************************************************************** DORIS Electronic Mail Wed Jul 29 15:11:56 WETDST 1998 Message Number 0050 ****************************************************************************** Author: Herve Fagard (IGN) Subject: Marion Island (MARA) station down Dear Colleagues, The hut containing the DORIS beacon at Marion Island was knocked over by a storm on July 7. The beacon was seriously damaged and apparently needs to be replaced. We are trying to find a solution to send a spare one, earlier than with the next scheduled boat to Marion (May 1999 !).
