Cruises

Here you will find a reverse chronologic list of the research expeditions Dr. Burkett has been involved in. Hopefully this will give visitors an idea of the work I participate in and assist current research students in locating documents they need for projects. 

Check out where things are on this 3D Tour!

  Originally scheduled for October of 2021, issues with components delayed this cruise.

Victor Brown Monnett Microfossil Archive (VBM)

The Victor Brown Monnett Microfossil Archive is proud to house an extensive collection of drill core residues and microfossil slides of picked foraminifera, diatoms, and radiolaria used in biostratigraphy across the United States of America. Identification and teaching collections from Dr. V.B. Monnett are also housed in this collection and photographs from these collections can be found below. At present, the Burkett research lab is working to catalog and digitize the archive. Please check back to see how we progress and let us know if you would be interested in a particular set of samples. We would be happy to photograph these samples or host you on a visit.
