Activities and equipment

ActivityEquipment
2023-021-FACorer - pressure
Recovers core while continuously maintaining hydrostatic pressure at or near in situ values
2023-021-FAPiston corer
Device similar to gravity corer, but is deployed in a controlled final descent by a trigger (usually a small gravity core). A piston inside the barrel allows for maximum capture of sediment.
