Instrument: Sediment Trap

Acronym: Sediment Trap
External Identifier: skos:broadMatch: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/L05/current/33/

Description

Sediment traps are specially designed containers deployed in the water column for periods of time to collect particles from the water column falling toward the sea floor. In general a sediment trap has a jar at the bottom to collect the sample and a broad funnel-shaped opening at the top with baffles to keep out very large objects and help prevent the funnel from clogging. This designation is used when the specific type of sediment trap was not specified by the contributing investigator.
