>> The Integrated Ocean Drilling Program is seeking U.S.-affiliated researchers with expertise in diatom or nannofossil paleontology for the Asian Monsoon Expedition aboard the JOIDES Resolution. The application period closes November 27, 2012.  This expedition is scheduled for late July – September 2013. To apply, please visit: http://www.iodp-usssp.org/sail.
>> 
>> Scientific objectives of this expedition will (1) address the timing of the onset of orbital and millennial scale variability of the East Asian Monsoon, (2) reconstruct orbital and millennial scale paleoceanographic changes in the Japan Sea during at least the last 5 my, (3) reconstruct the ventilation history of the Japan Sea, and its relation with the nature of the influx through the Tsushima Strait and the intensity of winter cooling; and (4) monitor the history of the Yangtze River discharge in the northern end of the East China Sea as it reflects variation and evolution in East Asian summer monsoon. If you have any questions, please email expeditions at oceanleadership.org.
