October 26, 2019: Bend it like Beckham.<\/h4>\n

Well, things can go terribly wrong during an Arctic Expedition. Always expect the unexpected. We bend the Calypso Giant Piston corer on the first station on the Vestnesa Ridge, Northwest of Svalbard. We thought we had control of the sediments we were supposed to core. ( This is why a good geophysical survey<\/a> is important!) Unfortunately the core came up on deck with an angle of more than 40 degrees. The good thing though: we saved 6 meter of core material, which will hopefully provide us with an explanation as to why this happened. A big applause to the crew\u00a0 onboard of RV \u201cKronprins Haakon\u201d who saved our core material. We have learned a lesson and will shorten the piston core from ~25 m down to ~15 m, at least for the Vestnesa Ridge. Honestly, I would appreciate ONE boring day without any surprises. Just ordinary nine-to-five, you know. However, the crew feels otherwise. The reason that they love their job. is because something unexpected is bound to happen.\u00a0 We will see what\u2019s surprises are coming next.<\/p>\n
