ANZIC community support for international scientific ocean drilling
|
|
|
The United States – Scientific Ocean Drilling Alliance (US-SODA) published a follow-up open letter to the U.S. National Science Foundation summarising the international call for support for continuing international leadership in scientific ocean drilling. You can read the full letter here.
The results of US-SODA's recent petition are clear: that scientific ocean drilling is vitally important to the world's vast and diverse scientific community. Australia and New Zealand were among the highest responding nations to the petition with a total of 156 submissions, a significant result considering our comparatively low populations. This highlights our region's appetite for a continued international program to enhance opportunities for ANZIC members and bolster future research discoveries.

ANZIC at National Science Week
|
|
|
We were excited to be part of the national launch of Science Week 2022 at Parliament House in Canberra on 4 August. ANZIC Program Manager Sarah Kachovich was in attendance, taking the opportunity to strengthen connections and celebrate the vital role of science in Australia.
This year's theme was Glass: More than meets the eye. We celebrated with a social media campaign highlighting various ways that glass presents in IODP cores, from diatoms, marine tephra and cryptotephra to volcanic glass, tektites and silicoflagellate. Check out the campaign on our Twitter and Facebook feeds.
We also hosted a group of highly engaged students from Marist Catholic College North Shore at ANU Research School of Earth Sciences this Science Week as part of the school's Canberra STEM Initiative tour. Sarah Kachovich explained ANZIC and IODP's mission to the group and guided them through an interactive workshop on the day the dinosaurs died, and there were plenty of insightful questions. Definitely some keen future geologists in the room!

ICDP CALDERA Workshop
24-27 January 2023
Tauranga, New Zealand
Applications dates extended for NZ applicants
New Zealand applicants now have until 2 September to apply for the Connections Among Life, Geo-Dynamics and Eruptions in a Rifting Arc (CALDERA) Project workshop, in preparation for a future Full ICDP Drilling Proposal. The project aims to obtain drill cores, downhole measurements and monitoring data from the Okataina Volcanic Centre to address volcanic, tectonic, hydrologic and biologic processes in calderas that are intimately connected, yet remain insufficiently understood.
