| Getting Involved in the IODP |
| Application forms and instructions are available at the websites of each Implementing Organization.
For UK scientists and scientists from other ECORD countries applications must be submitted to the ECORD Science
Support Advisory Committee (ESSAC). ESSAC has been appointed by ECORD as the
"National Office" for ECORD participation in IODP. |
| Staffing decisions are made in consultation with, co-chief scientists, the implementing organisations
(JOI Alliance for the non-riser vessel, ECORD Science Operator for mission-specific platforms, and CDEX for
the riser vessel Chikyu), and reviewed by the IODP Central Management Office. Final staffing authority lies
with the respective implementing organisation. |
| The IODP is a unique scientific endeavour. One of the most unusual aspects is the opportunities it
presents for people at all stages of their academic careers to be involved, from distinguished professor to
undergraduates. |

on the IODP
website. Cruise dates may be subject to modification,
but applications are being accepted for all expeditions.
