Design of a gravity corer for near shore sediment sampling

For the purpose of geotechnical investigation a gravity corer has been designed and fabricated to obtain undisturbed sediment core samples from near shore waters. The corer was successfully operated at 75 stations up to water depth 30 m. Simplicity of design adopted ensures minimum time in assemblin...

Zusammenfassung:For the purpose of geotechnical investigation a gravity corer has been designed and fabricated to obtain undisturbed sediment core samples from near shore waters. The corer was successfully operated at 75 stations up to water depth 30 m. Simplicity of design adopted ensures minimum time in assembling and dismantling the corer in the field.
