Conclusion
A rather small group of researchers based in Hobart
over the last half century has had a very great impact on the
field of cosmic ray modulation research. They have been active in
neutron monitor, surface and underground muon telescope and
airshower experiments and have played an important role in every
aspect of the field. Most have now retired but their legacy
continues through the impact of their work and their dedication to
keep equipment operating for long enough timebases that we may
start to understand effects on timescales of a lifetime or more.
The research and the researchers are rightly held in high regard
worldwide and those very few of us who follow in their footsteps
have a sound foundation from which we may continue the journey of
discovery they started.
