MicroSEABOSS (a.k.a. SEABOSSpro, a.k.a. GoProSEABOSS) | sample was collected with a modified Van Veen grab sampler on the MicroSEABOSS (a.k.a. SEABOSSpro, a.k.a. GoProSEABOSS). Note this designation was used by the sediment lab however, elsewhere in this data release, this version of the SEABOSS is referred to as the modified SEABOSS or the SEABOSS (modified). |
