A review is given of aeromagnetic, radiometric, seismic and gravimetric surveys over Greenland and adjacent offshore waters carried out during the decade 1975-85. The determination by aeromagnetic surveys of major boundaries in the Precambrian craton in ice-free areas and under the Inland Ice is discussed.
