A box corer is a specialized tool used in marine and environmental science to collect sediment samples from the seafloor. It is designed to capture a vertical column of sediment with minimal disturbance, preserving the natural layering and structure of the sediment, which is essential for various types of geological and biological research. The box corer typically consists of a rectangular metal frame that is equipped with a large, open box (the collector) at its base.
