Research vessel studying Earth's oceans and paleoclimate through scientific drilling. Part of the Integrated Ocean Drilling Program.

The International Ocean Discovery Program U.S. Implementing Organization (IODP-USIO), operates the scientific riserless drilling vessel JOIDES Resolution. The IODP-USIO is composed of the Consortium of Ocean Leadership, Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory's Borehole Research Group, and Texas A&M University's College of Geosciences. IODP is an international organization that conducts research into the evolution of Earth's surface, oceans, climate, and deep biosphere. IODP members include the USA, Japan, the European Consortium for Ocean Research Drilling (ECORD), People's Republic of China, Korea, the Australia/New Zealand Consortium (ANZIC), India, and Brazil. The program operated as the Integrated Ocean Drilling Program from October 2003 to September 2013.

The Deep Sea Drilling Project (DSDP) was an organization that conducted basic research into the history of the ocean basins and the nature of the crust beneath the ocean floor.

The U.S. Science Support Program (USSSP) facilitates involvement of the U.S. scientific community in the International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP). USSSP provides support for U.S.-based researchers to plan and participate in IODP expeditions on multiple drilling platforms. Among the activities supported by USSSP are thematic workshops, pre-drilling research, shipboard staffing and salary support, post-cruise studies, fellowships for graduate students, and an IODP-themed lecture series. USSSP staff also help the U.S. community communicate IODP-related research, participate in the IODP international advisory structure, and develop education products.
