Although Nansen retired from exploration after this expedition, the methods of travel and survival he developed with Johansen influenced all the polar expeditions, north and south, which followed in the subsequent three decades.
We applied Equation 3 to the 83 values of thermal conductivity determined using the transient line heat source method (Expedition 343/343T Scientists 2013b) and divided bar method (Fulton et al. 2013) to estimate thermal diffusivity at the JFAST site (Figure 6A).
The δ18OH2O and δDH2O at all four sites, however, have been measured by Dr. H. Tomaru using the method described by Expedition 315 Scientists ([2009a]).
Core retrieval, handling and all on board measurements including downhole logging are described in detail in the methods section of the Expedition 359 Proceedings Volume (Betzler et al. 2017).
Although their expedition aims were scientific and rational, their methods were deliberately geared to a different, almost mystical purpose: that of testing the character of their officers and men — to destruction if need be — in an annealing crucible of ice.
Citing unusable data from some expeditions, she proposed a workshop to coordinate sampling methods before more cruises depart.
By contrast, Nansen's method of using small, trained crews, and harnessing Inuit and Sami expertise in his methods of travel, had ensured that his expedition was completed without a single casualty or major mishap.
Three-dimensional quantitative analysis using X-ray CT combined with X-ray radiographs and line-scan digital core images of a marine sequence recovered during IODP Expedition 307 in the Porcupine Basin is an effective method for core characterization.
Sahagian liked the idea so much that he has invited Chamberlain on an expedition next summer to the Colorado plateau to compare all three methods.
Furthermore, to reduce the chances of guess-and-check methods (what students do when they are avoiding the mathematics), Expedition Atlantis includes automatic tutorial prompts after the player repeatedly answers incorrectly.
