Instrument: Gravity Corer

Acronym:

Gravity Corer

External Identifier:

» skos:broadMatch http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/L05/current/51/

Description

The gravity corer allows researchers to sample sediment layers at the bottom of lakes or oceans. The coring device is deployed from the ship and gravity carries it to the seafloor. (http://www.whoi.edu/instruments/viewInstrument.do?id=1079).
