Data sharing strategy

Shipboard and shore-based researchers should refer to the IODP Sample, Data, and Obligations policy posted on the Web at www.iodp.org/​program-policies/. This document outlines the policy for distributing IODP samples and data to research scientists, curators, and educators. The document also defines the obligations that sample and data recipients incur. The Sample Allocation Committee (SAC; composed of the Chief Scientist, Staff Scientist, and IODP Curator on shore and the curatorial representative on board ship) will work with the entire scientific party to formulate a formal expedition-specific plan for shipboard and postcruise data use.

This expedition involves downhole logging in an existing borehole with no new coring; therefore, no samples will be collected during this expedition.
