Although the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institue has reopened, our facility remains closed. While we anticipate reopening in the near future, we are unable to accommodate visitors for analytical sessions at this time. We are currently able to run samples on a mail-in basis. Mail-in sessions will be run by our staff, with video conferring communication throughout. Please contact Brian Monteleone (bmonteleone@whoi.edu) and/or Glenn Gaetani (ggaetani@whoi.edu) with any questions about future sessions.
