A modified box corer and extruder for marine pollution studies

Geochemical Association of Plutonium in Marine Sediments from Palomares (Spain)

“…Sediments from the marine ecosystem of Palomares were collected with a newly designed box-corer [10] while on board the O/V Bannock in July 1991. The cores were sliced into 1 cm thick sections, discarding the outer 1 cm ring to prevent contamination from the sections above.…”

Long overdue improvement of box corer sampling

However, in open sea areas, large open-barrel corers (Barnett et al 1984, Papucci et al 1986, Gerber et al 1996 or large box corers (Jonasson & Olausson 1966, Hessler & Jumars 1974, Boland & Rowe 1991 are often preferred because they provide larger samples.…”
