Crop Circle Research Archive Logo

The Crop Circle Research Archive is home to one of the world’s largest databases of crop circle-related information.

Science

Over the years, an incredible amount of scientific research has been undertaken into how crop circles form; where they appear; what tell-tale signs they leave behind. Much of this research is now long-forgotten but the results still exist, often buried in boxes and files, not having seen the light of day for several decades.

Over the coming months, these scientific studies will be unearthed, scanned, uploaded and become accessible from this page. The studies undertaken cover:

  • ADAS
  • Anomalous Photographs
  • Anomalous Sounds
  • BLT
  • Electrostatic Voltmeter
  • Eye Witness Accounts
  • Geology and Aquifers
  • Gerald Hawkins Research
  • Historical Formations
  • Magnetic Particles
  • Magnetometer
  • Plant Anomalies
  • Potentiometer
  • Project Argus
  • Project Chameleon
  • Project Relate
  • Stopwatches
  • Unexposed Film in Cannisters

There appears to be a correlation between crop circle distribution and geology. Water-bearing aquifers seem to attract or generate a majority of formations as further charts and maps like this one will show in due course as the archive is developed.
