1、Designation:D482395(Reapproved 2014)Standard Guide forCore Sampling Submerged,Unconsolidated Sediments1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D4823;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revisio
2、n.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This guide covers core-sampling terminology,advan-tages and disadvantages of different types of core samplers,core-distortions that may
3、 occur during sampling,techniquesfor detecting and minimizing core distortions,and methods fordissecting and preserving sediment cores.1.2 In this guide,sampling procedures and equipment aredivided into the following categories based on water depth:sampling in depths shallower than 0.5 m,sampling in
4、 depthsbetween 0.5 m and 10 m,and sampling in depths exceeding 10m.Each category is divided into two sections:equipment forcollecting short cores and equipment for collecting long cores.1.3 This guide emphasizes general principles.Only in a fewinstances are step-by-step instructions given.Because co
5、resampling is a field-based operation,methods and equipmentmust usually be modified to suit local conditions.This modi-fication process requires two essential ingredients:operatorskill and judgment.Neither can be replaced by written rules.1.4 Drawings of samplers are included to show sizes andpropor
6、tions.These samplers are offered primarily as examples(or generic representations)of equipment that can be purchasedcommercially or built from plans in technical journals.1.5 This guide is a brief summary of published scientificarticles and engineering reports.These references are listed inthis guid
7、e.These documents provide operational details thatare not given in this guide but are nevertheless essential to thesuccessful planning and completion of core sampling projects.1.6 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard.No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1
8、.7 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.For specificwarning
