## Caption

⚓️ As we celebrate World Oceans Day this week, we feature Columbia’s Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory Research Vessel (R/V) Marcus G. Langseth and our scientists, who have spent decades cataloging and reimagining the ocean’s critical role in our lives. They have been mapping the ocean floor, collecting seismic data aboard the R/V Marcus G. Langseth, studying the ocean carbon sink, and documenting changes in El Niño, among other deep questions. 🗺️

📷 #ColumbiaPhotoOfTheWeek by Jesus Gaytan in 2024 when the Langseth was stationed at the Brooklyn Navy Yard for some TLC before setting sail toward Iceland to track deep-water circulation in the North Atlantic. #ColumbiaUniversity #NewYorkCity
