OSU Marine and Geology Repository

Look what arrived today...Say hello to the cores from our BADEX Cruise near Baffin Bay! Looking forward to seeing the Science Party that will be working on these cores!

Congrats to the SALSA team!

Have you watched Earthstorm? The new @netflix series includes an episode on earthquakes, featuring @OSUCEOAS professor Chris Goldfinger's research on the Cascadia subduction zone and a special appearance by OSU-MGR! netflix.com/title/81346975

Before and after! The cores are now on their way to the MGR. Many thanks to @ByrdPolar for ensuring that these cores found a good home.

Working hard boxing up cores. We're moving a unique collection of Arctic cores from @ByrdPolar Ohio State to their new home at MGR. From one OSU to another! #NSFfunded

OSU-MGR in the news! Read on to learn more about how polar researchers adapted their projects as a result of the pandemic. Thanks @Nature, for highlighting the importance of sample sharing in and reuse. nature.com/articles/d4158…

Team sampling a popular Oregon shelf core today. Forams, diatoms, alkenones and more! @forceofnature @junepadman @OSUCEOAS

We are hiring! OSU-MGR student employees will perform a wide variety of curatorial tasks. To learn more, go to: jobs.oregonstate.edu/postings/126838

The cores are back from the @RVRogerRevelle collected by @OSUCoring Coring PI training workshop. Thanks to @NSF and @unols. Looking forward to having these studied in the upcoming years!

Day 3 of the @NSF Coring PI Training. We are happy to host scientists from various institutions at multiple career stages. Stay tuned for more updates! @unols

Had a great time hosting IDP School of Ice students for a morning of sediment core exploration @COLDEX_STC @OSUCEOAS

Visiting researchers have been excited to sample archived cores collected in Antarctica during the Dry Valley Drilling Project of 1973. Old cores still providing new information!

Last week we hosted our first core school at the new facility! Meet the Glacial Sedimentation School, class of 2022. Such a fun week, meeting everyone in person and working with cores from all over the world. #GLASS2022 #CoreCamp @OSUCEOAS

The Karsten dredge rock collection from U Hawaii Manoa arrived today at long last. We look forward to giving this important collection a new home.

Celebrating Undergraduate Excellence (CUE) today with our @OSUCEOAS undergrad student worker Callihan Johnson. He compared newly-imaged sediment cores from the Southern Ocean to a digital seafloor lithology map. Great job Cal!

@FJPavia split and imaged some beautiful Cocos Ridge cores at the repository this past week. Images are collected immediately after splitting to document the stratigraphy before further analyses like XRF.

Many CEOAS scientists use #sediment or ice cores cores to learn about the Earth. But what IS a sediment core, anyway? Take a look at this Story Map to learn about these tubes of mud! Featuring @PaleoMo beav.es/wAm

The ICI-Hot project team is here this week, collecting samples to learn more about bedrock and glacial incision in Marie Byrd Land. @csiddowa @ColoradoCollege @UMNEarthScience

Looking forward to hosting the PI training here at the repository in August. Application review begins on Feb 1.

Hosted a film crew and @goldfinger300 to spotlight a Cascadia Subduction Zone core in the repository yesterday
