European Consortium for Ocean Research Drilling
Welcome to the ECORD web site !
Ocean-floor drilling provides essential material for studying of climate changes, bio-diversity, geophysics and geodynamics. ECORD has been formed to participate in the Integrated Ocean Drilling Program - IODP under a single European banner alongside the U.S.A, Japan, Korea and China, and to provide support for mission-specific platform (MSP) operations.
ESO is the ECORD Science Operator and ESSAC the ECORD Scientific Committee.
