- Continue processing cores through the lab as described above.
- Core lab duties as described before apply here.
- Continue helping the scientists in plotting the data or, if needed, in the core-log-seismic integration process.
VI. During Expedition
- All staff are expected to perform shipboard duties as assigned by the Laboratory Officer as priority over other projectsReceive core and assist as needed in the core lab (i.e. splitting, restocking, boxing core, disposing of trash, and general cleaning and maintenance of core lab). Remember, the core lab is your primary duty and logging duties come secondary to that unless arrangements are made with the Lab Officer to meet special objectives. For details on Core lab responsibilities refer to the Core lab SOP.
- All staff are expected to report to work 5 minutes prior to the shift change time to cross-over with the off-going staff. You should be "ready to work" when you come on shift.
- All staff are expected to have their breakfast prior to coming on shift, have their dinner (supper) after shift ends and they are relieved by the oncoming staff. Lunch is the only meal eaten during the shift.
- Although break time onboard is scheduled at 3am, 9am, 3pm, and 9pm, due to our responsibilities, all staff are expected to adjust their break time according to "core-on-deck" schedules. A 15 minutes break time is reasonable. Note that when core flow is high enough, breaks may need to be cut short.
- All staff on shift are expected to be available for the entire 12 hours. You must respond to a call or a page. If you will be working in an area where no speaker or phone available, it is recommended that you notify ALO or your fellow staff with your whereabouts.
- All staff are expected to follow safety regulations at all time. All staff are also expected to observe the scientists' behavior and if they are not following safety rules, either correct it or inform the ALO.
- Wearing headphones with music during shift is highly discouraged due to safety reasons.
