JOIDES RESOLUTION
Science in Search of Earth's Secrets
What is the JOIDES Resolution?
The JOIDES Resolution (JR) was a research vessel that drilled into the ocean floor to collect and study core samples. Scientists use data from the JR to better understand climate change, geology and Earth’s history. It was a part of the International Ocean Discovery Program and was funded by the National Science Foundation. The JR retired from service in September 2024.
