Abstract
The KB corer has many advantages over other bottom-sampling devices including some other coring tubes. It may be used to obtain reliable estimates of the standing stock of benthic invertebrates inhabiting soft sediments and of their spatial distribution in lakes and rivers. It may also be used for studies of the vertical distribution of animals and bacteria, and could be used for a wide variety of studies on sediments. Multiple-unit versions have been built and operated, thus overcoming the size limitation imposed by the basic design. This paper communicates some results obtained using this sampler.
