Statement: We compiled and interpreted geophysical drill site characterization data as required to support any International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP) drilling proposal. This was a "Virtual Site Survey", meaning no new data was collected, and instead we compiled and interpreted existing freely available data, together with proprietary commercial data released specifically for this project by the owners under appropriate non-disclosure agreements.
