Abstract
Soft bottom samples were taken with the Van Veen grab and the HAPS corer for [marine environmental monitoring]. The benthos was determined and counted. The time of work in the laboratory was measured. The core sampler gave the highest abundance and diversity with the least use of working resources.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
