During Expedition 327 we installed subseafloor observatories in two new holes in oceanic crust, replaced an observatory in an existing hole to facilitate long-term monitoring, recovered and replaced an instrument string deployed in one of the Expedition 301 subseafloor borehole observatories; and completed remedial cementing of another Expedition 301 observatory that is not sealed at the seafloor.
Expedition 327 included an international education and outreach program to develop tools and techniques that facilitate the communication of exciting scientific drilling results to a broad audience, build educational curricula, and create media products that will help achieve critical outreach goals.

On Expedition 317 (November 4 2009 - January 4 2010), the scientists investigated ancient changes in sea level. In other words, how deep was the ocean in the past? The scientists on this expedition were (and are) working to figure out how much of the change in sea level that we see in the rock record is caused by actual rise and fall of sea level (because of glaciers freezing and melting), and how much of it is because rocks got pushed up out of their ocean home.
