A Subice Suction Corer for Sampling Epontic Ice Algae
Standard SIPRE coring was compared with a new Subice Suction Corer and cores taken by diver for the quantitative assessment of epontic (subice) algae on first-year congelation sea ice at Resolute, N.W.T., Canada (≈75°N). The diver cores were probably most accurate but were slow and costly. SIPRE cor...
