Environmental Coring

Environmental coring is a technique used to collect cylindrical samples of soil, sediment, or rock from beneath the Earth's surface. Using specialized equipment called a corer, scientists carefully extract these samples to study their composition, layers, and history. This method helps researchers understand environmental conditions, past climate changes, pollution levels, and natural processes over time. Coring provides valuable information for environmental assessment, scientific research, and resource management, all while minimally disturbing the site. It’s a precise way to look beneath the surface and gain insights into the Earth's subsurface environments.
