The scientists have a lot of work to get oriented. The expedition started off with a short transit of only 14 hours and “core on deck” came shortly after. All of the data that is generated must be entered into the ship’s database. The main tool used for core description is DESClogik, a database program developed by IODP. Zenon Mateo (Core Laboratory, IODP JRSO) (center) gives instructions to core describers Tobias Himmler (Sedimentologist, University of Bremen, Germany), Helen McGregor (Sedimentologist, University of Wollongong, Australia), Donald Potts (Sedimentologist, University of California, Santa Cruz, USA), and Lars Reuning (Sedimentologist, RWTH Aachen University, Germany).
