Abstract

The Pacific equatorial age transect (PEAT) science program is based on Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP) Proposal 626 and consists of Expeditions 320 and 321, grouped into one science program. The goal is to recover a continuous Cenozoic record of the equatorial Pacific by drilling at the paleoposition of the Equator at successive crustal ages on the Pacific plate. This addendum provides an updated schedule and operational plan for Expeditions 320 and 321. All other scientific operations are as described in the original Expedition 320/321 Scientific Prospectus (publications.iodp.org/scientific_prospectus/320_321/).
