Notes:
¹ Dates for expeditions may be adjusted pending non-IODP activities.
² The start date reflects the initial port call day. The vessel will sail when ready.
³ Transit total is the transit to and from port call and does not include transit between sites.
⁴ The USIO contact list includes both the Expedition Project Manager (*), the primary contact for the expedition, and the Logging Staff Scientist (^).
⁵ Includes engineering test of the Motion Decoupled Hydraulic Delivery System.
⁶ End port for Exp. 341 is tentative. Alternative ports that may reduce transit times are being investigated.
