| Definition | Long Piston Corer (LPC) developed by BAS in collaboration with Marine Project Developments of Hull, originally trialled in 1992. Piston corers use heavy tubes which are plunged into the seafloor to extract samples of mud sediment. A piston inside the tube allows scientists to capture the longest possible samples. The corer can collect undisturbed marine sediment cores with barrel lengths of up to 30m. | ||
