Guidebooks for onboard scientists
- Guidebooks for onboard scientists
- These guidbooks explain how to prepare for cruises, to manage data and samples onboard, and to submit data and samples after the cruise. Onboard scientists and collaborators who deal with the data and samples are suggested to read before the preparation for cruise.
Preparation for cruise: online request form
- Request form for core sample containers (D-tubes) for submitting archive samples
- Chief Scientists can request sample containers with the form, for submitting archive core samples.
Note: Early requests are suggested to ensure proper loading schedules.
Template forms for data submission
- Metadata Sheet for cruise information
- Chief Scientists will organize cruise information with other onboard scientists and submit the information with this file. The file will be processed automatically into the database. Note: It is suggested that you will check for metadata entries in from (A) to (C) sheets before the cruise, and fill in some entries with available information beforehand.
