A great write-up on the work Dr Adam Woodhouse did in the XRF lab here at the GCR last week! IODP at Texas A&M JOIDES Resolution

Go Carel! 👏 #TeamGCR

We have core from #Leg21 and #Leg91 here at the GCR! #IODP #JRSO U.S. National Science Foundation #NSFfunded

We love providing educational samples to the community 🙌 Contact us if you are interested in getting samples for your classes!

Next time you study a core sample, thank Frederick McKinley Jones, inventor of the refrigerated truck. This is what we use to transport our cores from JOIDES Resolution to the IODP Gulf Coast Repository. #BHM #IODP #JRSO #NSFfunded U.S. National Science Foundation 📷creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.…

This week the GCR hosted #Exp396 scientist Stacy Yager @slyrocks1 as she helped out with the expedition's programmatic XRF scanning!

The GCR hosted an IODP tour and a K/Pg core description activity with Wildwood Secondary on Wednesday, March 2. #IODP #JRSO #NSFfunded @NSF_GEO

Happy #InternationalWomensDay! Today we celebrate all the women who sail on JOIDES Resolution, as well as those who work on shore in Science Ops, TAS, IT, Publications, Admin, and IODP Gulf Coast Repository. #IODP #JRSO #NSFfunded U.S. National Science Foundation 1/2

#TBT to the Guaymas Basin! A fresh core on deck was curated and sampled quickly for geochemistry and microbiology post-cruise research. Frozen #Exp385 Routine Microbiology Samples (RMS) + other legs reside at the GCR for future sampling. #IODP #JRSO #NSFfunded @JR IODP at Texas A&M U.S. National Science Foundation

Last week the GCR hosted a Texas A&M geology class and got them hands-on experience in core description! #IODP #JRSO #NSFfunded U.S. National Science Foundation

For the next 2 weeks the GCR continues to host a core description party for Expeditions 384 & 395C. Pictured are 'tools of the trade' including a Munsell Soil Color Chart, scraper, hand lens & toothpicks. #NSF #IODP #JRSO #JoidesResolution #pantone #munsell

The GCR Microscope Lab has transformed into the Smear Slide Cave for the #EXP395C description party. Enter at your own risk!

For 2 weeks, Expedition 395 igneous and metamorphic petrologists have been carefully describing the crystalline basement rocks collected on Expeditions 384 & 395C U.S. National Science Foundation IODP at Texas A&M Texas A&M Geosciences #NSFfunded #IODP #petrology

Science party members from #IODP #Exp391 watch out: the shippings for samples taken during last week´s Sample Party at the Bremen Core Repository @marum_de @UniBremen are ready to leave tomorrow! IODP at Texas A&M ECORD

Our #Curator, Michelle out on JOIDES Resolution splitting Expeditions 390C and 395E cores during the long transit to U1559! #EXP390C #EXP395E #EXP393 #IODP #JRSO #NSFfunded IODP at Texas A&M U.S. National Science Foundation

The xray technician, Bridgette, prepares discs with smeared sediment to run through the XRay Diffraction machine. The test provides information on what minerals are inside the sample. 📸Tessa Peixoto/ IODP #NSFfunded #xrays #lab #EarthScience #EXP393

For the next week we are hosting the Exp. 392 Sample Party. #NSF #IODP #Exp392 #NSFfunded

Exp. 398 archive half core arrived at the GCR today for XRF scanning! #iodp #NSFfunded #NationalScienceFoundation #TAMU #JRSO #EXP398 #GCR IODP at Texas A&M U.S. National Science Foundation
