The U.S. GEOTRACES GP17-OCE expedition departed Papeete, Tahiti (French Polynesia) on December 1st, 2022 and arrived in Punta Arenas, Chile on January 25th, 2023. The cruise took place in the South Pacific and Southern Oceans aboard R/V Roger Revelle. The GP17 expedition pairs with the 2018 GP15 Alaska-Tahiti expedition, creating a testing line all the way from the waters around Alaska to the waters around Antarctica.
This project was funded by the National Science Foundation as a part of the GP17-OCE management proposal and was designed and curated by the LIVE Lab, School of Performance, Visualization and Fine Arts and by the Department of Oceanography, College of Arts and Sciences at Texas A&M University.
