UKIODP has sponsored participants in the following recent meetings/workshops:


2013 2012
  • 2012 UK-IODP Student Conference

    Approximately 50 students, early-career scientists, and mentoring senior scientists participated in this 3 day event of research presentations and workshop actvities. One highlight was a day long exercise where student groups put together and presented a mock IODP drilling proposal. This turned out to be an excellent tool in which to introduce many aspects of the programme, from working with an inter-disciplinary group of scientists to coming up with complimentary scientific objectives, to planning a logistically practical operation.
  • 2012 UK-IODP General Conference
    A day of excellent talks covering the diversity of research conducted within IODP, a poster session, and discussions about the future of the international and domestic programs.
2011
  • IODP/ICDP Workshop geological carbon capture and storage, Muscat, Oman
2010
  • The  2010 PALSEA workshop ((PALeo-constraints on SEA-level rise -

UKIODP University Visits

The Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP) officially began in October 2003 and is made up of an international partnership of countries with the aim to provide a better understanding of plate tectonic processes, the Earth's crustal structure and composition, environmental conditions and life in ancient oceans, and climate change. Dayton Dove, the Science Coordinator for the UK membership to the Integrated Ocean Drilling Program, will come to talk about research and funding opportunities of IODP. These include cruise participation on the three ocean drilling platforms and NERC IODP Research awards. To email the science coordinator to enquire about university visits please click here.
