A New Type of Muddy Sediment Undisturbed Gravity Sampler in Shallow Waters

Article Preview

Abstract:

Muddy sediment records environmental change information water experienced. Due to the sampling disturbance, parameters provided by sediment analysis can't truly reflect the true nature of in situ sediment and water environmental information. This paper introduces a kind of muddy sediment undisturbed gravity sampler used in shallow waters, through a unique rubber sealing membrane deformation method. The sampler proved to be an effective tool of muddy sediment undisturbed sample in shallow waters, with characteristics of light weight, easy to carry, and convenient operation.
