APPLYING FOR SCIENTIFIC PARTICIPATION
Shipboard and shore-based opportunities exist across all Stage 1 expeditions for interested researchers. Besides the central fault-zone objectives, diverse geological environments will be sampled, including the interior of an actively developing accretionary wedge, gas hydrates, oceanic crust, abyssal plain turbidite systems, and a major forearc basin sequence. Opportunities include sedimentology, structural geology, physical properties, geochemistry, rock magnetism, borehole geophysics, seismology, microbiology, hydrogeology, crustal deformation, and other disciplines.
Applications to participate in the Stage 1 expeditions (Table T1) should be made through the scientists' national IODP program member office (PMO). Links to these PMOs and information about applying are available at www.iodp.org/apply-to-sail/.
