#iodp3nsf — Public Fediverse posts

Onshore operations of #IODP3NSF #Exp501 might be over but our blog is still running and we have not finished yet introducing our scientist. 👩‍🔬 Today is the turn of Valentina Rossi from from Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche.

Not just hands-on science during #IODP3NSF #Exp501: a huge part of the work happens behind the scenes, deep in reports and documentation. Science doesn’t exist without the paperwork.

We’re in our final days of the onshore phase of #IODP3NSF #Exp501, but we haven’t yet shared what happens to the “working half.” Once split, it becomes the focus of intense sampling and analysis, helping us unlock the story hidden beneath the seafloor➡️ https://expedition501.wordpress.com/2026/02/10/the-core-flow-the-journey-of-the-working-half/

While the onshore operations of #IODP3NSF #Expedition501 are coming to an end, we’re not done meeting the people behind the science.

Today, meet Bryce Mitsunaga from
Harvard
