🌊🧪 Did you know HOV Alvin dive images + video are available for the public?
Check out Sealog data via National Deep Submergence Facility (NDSF) here ⤵️
( ⚠️ Per usual, some data are under embargo periods and will be released once they lapse)
For critical minerals in U.S. Federal (OCS) waters (*beyond those boundaries = NOAA) 🧪🌊
Still need *lots of research to understand these unique environments + resources. Ongoing projects plus several upcoming opportunities. Stay tuned! Hoping to present our interagency efforts @ AGU (~2027).
RemindMe! 1 year
(*For posterity, AT50-38)
HAPPY #WorldOceanDay 🌊
⛴️ Fair winds to the R/V Atlantis + Alvin crews as they depart for sea trials in Bermuda. Hoping everything goes smoothly! (Also, #HappyMobDay)
Heading into Memorial Day- remembering my friends/ shipmates/ family.
🌍 Especially reflecting on my NATO + international military family who gave their lives in our campaigns.

My Explorer's Heart 🫶 is so excited! 🧪🌊🔭
For funnsies [when available], I may use the δ¹⁸O(atm) from these data to recreate my HLY0503-JPC22 age model. Might make for a good comparison... and new pub!
Posting for my own posterity (*temporal pincer movement- if anyone gets this reference, you officially rock!)
