Abstract

There are several ways to get onboard the JOIDES Resolution, a 143‐meter long converted oil tanker that is a floating laboratory, and the pride of the Ocean Drilling Program (ODP).You can meet up with it at a port of call, or set down on its helicopter pad. Or you can hitch a ride by overnight supply boat, and then get lifted by crane to the Resolution by clinging to the outside of a rope transfer basket as this reporter did.
