Sediment Trap Studies

Sediment Trap Studies is a methodological approach in marine biogeochemistry that involves the systematic deployment of calibrated sediment traps in the water column to quantify the vertical flux, composition, and temporal variability of sinking particulate matter, thereby distinguishing it from other observational techniques by its direct measurement of particle transport in pelagic environments.
