An innovative piston corer for large‐volume sediment samples
Coring is one of several standard procedures to extract sediments and their faunas from open marine, estuarine, and limnic environments. Achieving sufficiently deep penetration, obtaining large sediment volumes in single deployments, and avoiding sediment loss upon retrieval remain problematic. We developed a piston corer with a diameter of 16 cm that enables penetration down to 1.5 m in a broa...
متن کاملSystematic Sampling for Suspended Sediment
Because of high costs or complex logistics, scientific populations cannot be measured entirely and must be sampled. Accepted scientific practice holds that sample selection be based on statistical principles to assure objectivity when estimating totals and variances. Probability sampling--obtaining samples with known probabilities--is the only method that assures these results. However, probabi...
متن کاملQuantitative sampling of soft-bottom sediments: problems and solutions
Since the pioneering attempts to obtain quantitative soft-bottom sediment samples at the beginning of this century, many different devices for sampling soft bottoms have been presented. Most techniques, however, yield semi-quantitative samples only. For studies dealing with certain aspects of microlayering, freezing in situ seems to be a good method. In more general studies, quantitative sample...
متن کاملFrom variable density sampling to continuous sampling using Markov chains
Since its discovery over the last decade, Compressed Sensing (CS) has been successfully applied to Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). It has been shown to be a powerful way to reduce scanning time without sacrificing image quality. MR images are actually strongly compressible in a wavelet basis, the latter being largely incoherent with the k-space or spatial Fourier domain where acquisition is p...
متن کاملAN ADAPTIVE IMPORTANCE SAMPLING-BASED ALGORITHM USING THE FIRST-ORDER METHOD FOR STRUCTURAL RELIABILITY
Monte Carlo simulation (MCS) is a useful tool for computation of probability of failure in reliability analysis. However, the large number of samples, often required for acceptable accuracy, makes it time-consuming. Importance sampling is a method on the basis of MCS which has been proposed to reduce the computational time of MCS. In this paper, a new adaptive importance sampling-based algorith...
