A total of 556 box core samples were taken at sites up to 2.2 miles deep.
We present and discuss several issues, including the different services that Pandora supports, system architecture, Pandora's box, core, Web services, security, etc.
We collected 8 seawater samples to measure helium isotopes; 20 to measure thorium and protactinium isotopes; 7 in-situ pump filters; 1 box core of the ocean floor; and more.
All of these organisms must be sampled with specialized gear, including trawl, box core, grab, remotely operated vehicle, and scuba diver (see Eleftheriou and McIntyre [114] for a complete list of methods) appropriate for the specific habitat and size categories.
also identified several nematodes (Halalaius, Eumorpholaimus, Araeolaimus, Linhystera, Diplopeltula, Rhabditis, Paraethmolaimus, Sabatieria, Odentophora, Axonolaimus, Spiliphera), harpacticoides (Parameriopsis sp ., and polychaetes (Hesione sp., Prionospio sp., Paradoneis) in the box core collections from Afanasiy Nikitin seamount and two other, as yet unnamed, seamounts.
Based on box core samples collected along bathymetric transects spanning the length of the Mediterranean, De Rijk and coworkers [86] reported a broad peak in species richness between 200 m and 1,000 m, below which richness decreased to 4,000 m, the maximum depth sampled.
Each method detected unique species, demonstrating the value of a multi-method approach compared to e.g. box coring alone.
The coralgal origin of the banks was first proposed in the mid-1970s17,18 based on five banks from which rock samples were collected by piston coring, dredging, box coring, and Van Veen grab.
To assess the concomitant temporal changes in the SMB sediments, a study was initiated in June 1997, in which 25 box cores were collected using a stratified random sampling design.
X-radiography of sediment slabs from box cores has also been used to estimate burrow shapes and burrow wall surface areas.
Subsequently, box cores have been used [79], [86], [267].
