Our task at the IODP Bremen Core Repository (BCR) is to store, preserve and manage the collection of well over 150 km of deep-sea core material collected over several decades by the DSDP, ODP, and IODP programs, and to provide samples to the scientific community worldwide for diverse research projects. Our collection comprises all sediment and hard-rock cores from the Atlantic and Arctic Oceans and the Mediterranean Sea.
