Submerged

Welcome to the Pacific International Oceanographic Laboratory, under the sea, here in the Mariana Islands. We look forward to learning from your team’s expertise and knowledge of submarine volcanoes and how they affect the marine life around them. You are joining an elite group of oceanographers and volcanologists from around the world with many years of observation and research experience. Please, get settled in, check for any messages left by your colleagues, and review the research they have left for you. Be aware though, the Irish and Australian scientists were here last, and you know what pranksters they are; they love to hide things! Oh, a reminder that our facility is located near a few of the submarine volcanoes and we have been experiencing some tremors – but don’t be alarmed, the lab is perfectly safe from any water breach. By the odd chance an emergency does occur, you will have 60 minutes to secure your research and ready yourselves for the automated ascent pod to take you to the surface. We’re glad you’re here and if you need help, just give us a shout!
