Definition | A marine geological tool that recovers undisturbed soft surface sediments, based on the design by Hans-Erich Reineck (1963). Also referred to as a 'spade' corer, it is designed for minimum disturbance of the sediment surface by bow wave effects. Traditionally, it consists of a weighted stem fitted to a square sampling box. The corer is lowered vertically until it impacts with the seabed. At this point the instrument is triggered by a trip as the main coring stem passes through its frame. While pulling the corer out of the sediment a spade swings underneath the sample to prevent loss. When hauled back on board, the spade is under the box. | |
