couldn’t have done it without #TheJR, @tamu.bsky.social’s #GCR 💯, and #IODP, @thomasronge.bsky.social ❗️

I still can scarcely believe, as a land geologist, that I experienced was able to sail on #TheJR for #IODP379 deep sea drilling in outer #AmundsenSea. (And a lucky thing, too -- because there was a quantity of #IRD ice rafted ROCK debris that glaciers carved out of the continental bedrock!)

Submerged in Science - Eos New generations of submersibles and retired stalwarts of the seas are helping scientists put the depths of the ocean at the tips of our fingers.

For June, Eos has something old (an updated, 60-years-young #Alvin), something new (#NSFfunded midsize remotely operated vehicles for the U.S. Academic Research Fleet), something borrowed (time on #theJR), and something blue (the beautiful deep sea). 🌊

Chem lab at sea on theJR

#TheJR is looking pretty festive as we hear up to head out of Amsterdam on #Exp401. I am working the night shift 🧪 in the chemistry lab at sea for the next 2 months, phase 1 of #IMMAGEland2sea ⚒️ #NSFfunded
