   🧵 “Exciting” isn’t enough to describe what I currently have the privilege to take part in. From now until Dec 12, I’m joining "Expedition 503 – Hadal Trench Tsunamigenic Slip History: Buried in Trench" of the IODP³. We’re in the Japan Trench on board the deep-sea scientific drilling vessel D/V Chikyu, one of the most advanced research vessels in the world.
