2021-308-FAVibracorer
A vibracorer (also called a vibratory corer) is a specialized sediment sampling device used to collect continuous cores of unconsolidated, water-saturated sediments from marine, estuarine, and wetland environments. It is widely employed in coastal and marine surveys for geologic, geochemical, and environmental studies.
