The Ocean Drilling Program III: The shipboard laboratories on "JOIDES Resolution" Conference Paper uri icon

abstract

  • JOIDES Resolution, the scientific drillship of the National Science Foundation's Ocean Drilling Program, contains over 12,000 square feet of laboratory space. Years of experience gained in the previous JOIDES program of scientific ocean drilling (the Deep Sea Drilling Project) have provided many ideas for improving the capabilities of a scientific drillship. The authors emphasize the new instrumentation that was acquired or developed for the laboratories. Some techniques and equipment are in use for the first time at sea. Their experiences with these through the program's early cruises are related.
