Sediment Trap Sampling

Sediment Trap Sampling is a methodological technique in aquatic and environmental sciences that involves the deployment of container-based instruments to passively collect particulate matter suspended in water columns over time, distinguishing it from other sediment sampling approaches by its focus on quantifying temporal fluxes of settling particles rather than capturing bed or surficial sediments.
