This short video gives an overview of the SPARC initiative. From submitting a proposal and staffing your science team, to carrying out your SPARC research and publishing your results, this video takes you through the whole process, and gives you the opportunity to meet the IODP³ Science Office team who are available to answer any questions you may have, and to help you to submit your proposal.
