| Definition | Construction is a 32cm x 32 cm rectangular mouth opening net attached to a metal box frame work which was 37 cm tall x 37 cm wide x 30 cm long. The net was about 30 cm long had 0.333 mm nylon mesh. The system was lowered to the seafloor where an anchor attached to the net frame by a spool of line became fixed. The net was towed at ~1.5 knots away from the anchor until the line was fully extended whereupon it triggered a choke rope closing the net. Distance covered by the sampler was about 10 m. A scaled up version with 70.1 cm x 70.1 cm mouth opening also described [Wiebe and Benfield 2003 Plate 23 A]. |
