Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

The journal publishes preliminary reports from International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP) expeditions. These reports focus on scientific drilling operations aimed at understanding Earth's history, including tectonic rifting, continental margin formation, ocean circulation, climate change, and the evolution of oceanic crust. Expeditions investigate geological processes such as volcanism, hydrothermal activity, and seismic behavior, and collect core samples for paleoceanographic, microbiological, and geochemical studies.
