The International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP) is entering its second phase (2019-2023). However, based on the preparatory phase of the current IODP (2013-2023), it is now time to think of a potential scientific ocean drilling programme beyond 2023.  If you are interested in IODP science and attending EGU 2019 in Vienna, Austria, you can influence and help to ensure the future of IODP  by registering for the ECORD PROCEED Workshop - http://www.ecord.org/science/proceed/. The workshop will be held in Vienna on 6-7 April, so thanks for remembering to build this into your plans for attending EGU 2019.
