Supplier: OKTOPUS GmbH Model: MC600 Features: After touching down, the corer penetrates the sediment slowly based on weight. Upon lifting, the upper lids of the corers will be closed, and the lower lids will also be closed after the cores are completely lifted from the seafloor. The sampler allows for retrieval of cores with intact sediment-water interface. Core liner: Outer diameter, 100 mm; length, 60 cm; thickness, 2.5 mm; material, plexiglass. Six liners are available.

Supplier: Local manufacturer Features: Upon landing, the central box penetrates the seafloor by the weight (500 kg) of the sampler. The sediment is then retained in the box by the shovel, which slides down to seal the box when the sampler is uplifted. The sampler allows for the retrieval of surface sediment with limited disturbance. Notes: (1) Deployment is allowed only under fair weather conditions; (2) the scientific party needs to take care of box dismantling; (3) the scientific party needs to prepare core liners. Box size: 20*30*60 cm (L*W*H) Operational Video: Link (incl. instruction of box dismantling)
