The #exp397 sampling party has begun and the samples are in HIGH demand! There is little to no sediment left in most working half cores for the shallower depths of cores U1586.

The end of the @TheJR era, marked by great discoveries about the Earth and oceans, its structure, its changing climate, and its future Entire careers were born and supported on this floating laboratory, including plenty of my own memories in this program nsf.gov/news/news_summ.jsp?c…

The kids radio show/podcast I and @AmyHMayer were interviewed for on #Exp397 is now live! The show runs an hour long but is mostly ocean-themed kids music. You’ll find snippets of our interview in between ☺️ childrenshour.org/the-bottom… Thank you @TCHRadio for having us on!

Our final core of #exp397 just got split! What an incredible 2 month journey it has been. Excited to continue the science on land by producing data for my PhD! #NSFfunded

Group outing to the freshly painted helideck for sunrise. #Exp397 nightshift gets some selfies in, too. @Deepwater_Han @JasminMLink @paleosanchez @celeste_pallone #IODP #NSFFunded #scientificoceandrilling #sunrise

My biggest reason for striking is to end this conversation for future first-gen students. @UofCalifornia, first-gen students aren't just some statistic you can use to claim that you serve them. Do better by making your schools a place where they can thrive. (4/4) #FairUCNow

#OTD in 1970, the Oregon Highway Division consulted with the U.S. Navy and decided the best way to dispose of a whale carcass was to blow it up with a 1/2 ton of dynamite. The explosion caused blubber to rain down on spectators for over a 1/4 of a mile. The TV segment is classic.

I’m pointing to the 1st cores ever drilled in 1968 by the Deep Sea Drilling Project. These were recovered from the Gulf of Mexico during Leg 1 of the Glomar Challenger. This expedition showed that cores could be recovered from the deep sea using a dynamic positioning system. And,

Our scientists love sediment. And this morning it appeared the sediment loved them back! 📷 @JasminMLink #Exp397 #NSFFunded #paleoclimate #IberianMargin #iodp #ScientificOceanDrilling
