Attention:

Please note that the TV-guided Multiple Corer can only be operated upon request. Request operations with the TV-guided Multiple Corer to AWI-Logistics in sufficient time prior to the cruise.

Apart from the pure TV-system it is necessary to provide seperately the Multi Corer (MUC; tall frame with 12 tubes à 63mm) which can be borrowed e.g. at the AWI department of Geology (Dr. Jens Matthiessen).

Summary

The TV-guided Multiple Corer is a multi corer with a camera attached to it. Thereby it is possible to directly monitor the seafloor while sampling it.
