USSSP/IODP: Science Mission Requirements

The NSF has asked the U.S. Science Support Program (USSSP) for assistance in developing Science Mission Requirements, or SMRs, for a globally-ranging riserless U.S. drilling vessel to address high priority scientific objectives outlined in the 2050 Science Framework: Exploring Earth by Scientific Ocean Drilling. The SMR effort will begin with an online community survey, which will be accessible through March 15. All survey responses provided by March 15 will be used to guide the virtual forums and in-person workshop. Completion of the survey will serve as one part of your application for attending the in-person workshop. The survey has 28 questions and should take approximately 30 minutes to complete. During the survey period, we will hold open, online sessions to provide answers to any questions you may have about the survey. Visit https://usoceandiscovery.org/smr/ to learn more and to take the survey.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thank you,
Brandon
