RV Marcus Langseth

RV Marcus Langseth

R/V "Marcus Langseth" is a 235 ft, 2578 gross ton research vessel operated by the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory of Columbia University. The "Langseth" came into service in early 2008, and has replaced the "R/V Maurice Ewing". "Langseth" is intended primarily to collect multichannel seismic data, including 3-D surveys. The ship was purchased from the geophysical survey company WesternGeco in 2004, having previously been named "M/V Western Legend".

The "Marcus Langseth" was named for Marcus G. Langseth, a Lamont scientist.
