I have been doing research with Dr. Gregg Brooks for about a year now and I\u2019m so glad I got the opportunity to go on this cruise and see the research I do in the lab come full circle. Today was our first day coring and my first time ever coring. Since we were at a shallow site, the whole process was pretty fast pace but a lot of fun.<\/p>\n<p>Even though I went into coring not knowing much about the process, I came out much more confident. Everyone on the \u201dmud\u201d crew was super informative and helpful (and patient) whenever I had questions or was unsure about a step in the coring process. I can\u2019t wait for round two!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Photo: Jessie Heckman (Eckerd College) prepares to&nbsp;extrude a sediment core from the northern Gulf of Mexico and will study the 5 year impacts of Deepwater Horizion (Photo: Elizabeth Herdter)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; My name is Jessie Heckman and I am going into my sophomore year at Eckerd College majoring in marine science on a geology track.
