What the....mmmmmm????? (Atlanta's Airport)
Calamari anyone...last night me and few others ended up catching 28 squid while we were waiting for the Multi-core to surface. The Multi-core sampled at a depth of 1800 meters last night. We are currently surveying to deploy the CTD and Multi-core to 2000 meters.
Holding my first extremely large red crap. Alvin snatched it off the floor before its last ascent.
Multi-core completed and ready for deployment. Vacum of the sediment is a major functionality of the multi-cores, not so much the arms that cover the bottom.
After the cores come up, they are stored in the cooler to help preservation. They are then taken to our lab for further evaluation, sampling, and storage.
We slice .5 and 1 cm sections of each core for processing. Who says you can't paid for playing in the mud.
