Using a narrow apple corer, make a hole at the stem end and scoop out the pulp by twisting it round, being careful not to break the skin. |
|
The amount of sediment collected depends on the length of the corer, the size of the main weight, and the penetrability of the bottom. |
|
Remove the core from the base, using a corer or a small melon baller. |
|
Rinse the outside of the grab and corer, paying attention to potential washout of the sediments inside. |
|
A clamp attached to the corer is used to bring it to the surface with a winch installed on the boat. |
|
Essentially undisturbed cores of lengths up to 200 metres have been obtained with this type of corer. |
|
On a shelf underneath were the tools — whisk, mandoline, oyster-shucking knife, shears, and an apple corer. |
|
Once the corer is out of the water, the closing system at the base must be removed and the tube sealed. |
|
Mean density of invertebrates captured by corer at various sampling stations. |
|
They were luckier than the seven who were shot on this same corer in February. |
|
Coring devices typically have three principal components: interchangeable core tubes, a main body of streamlined lead weights, and a tailfin assembly that directs the corer in a vertical line to the ocean bottom. |
|
In addition, operating this type of corer requires a certain amount of experience and an accurate knowledge of water depths in order to keep the piston just above the sediments. |
|
Deeper cores are taken by the piston corer. |
|
Therefore, using a corer for bioassay samples can be more appropriate. |
|
Change the size by clicking on one corer and dragging your mouse. |
|
For infauna one core sample with a diameter of 11 cm was taken during every sampling by pushing the corer about 10 cm into the sediment. |
|
When the corer is brought to the surface and before the tube is taken out of the water, a plug must be inserted into the base to maintain the hydrostatic pressure that limits the loss of material. |
|
During sampling, the corer is lowered to the surface of the sediments and then driven into the sediment column by pushing on the rod or using a hammer. |
|
It is also recommended that ballast be increased rather than increasing the height of freefall, since the greater the freefall, the greater the chance of the corer not entering at a perpendicular angle to the bottom. |
|
Using an apple corer or swivel potato peeler, scoop out the core at the thick end of each pear, taking care to keep the fruit intact. |
|
|
One type of coring device, the lightweight Phleger corer, takes samples only of the upper layer of the ocean bottom to a depth of about one metre. |
|
I expect to be the main goals corer in any team that I play in. |

He bought me this fab cupcake corer yesterday from Lakeland. |
