Proposal Types and Guidelines
IODP3 science is driven by three types of community-generated proposals, targeting the seven Strategic Objectives, five Flagship Initiatives, and four Enabling Elements of the “2050 Science Framework”:
- Scientific Ocean Drilling Proposals (for science achieved via IODP3 coring/drilling)
- Land-to-Sea Proposals (for science achieved via a combination of IODP3 and ICDP drilling)
- SPARC Proposals (for science achieved via new analyses of existing ocean drilling legacy assets)
