A Long-Core Stroll

Research Specialist Jim Broda—and 35 fellow WHOI employees—hold a prototype of his newly developed long coring pipe. The new “long-coring” system being installed on R/V Knorr is the longest in the U. S. research fleet (twice as long as existing systems). Broda has helped develop several ship-based coring systems. (Photo by Tom Kleindinst, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution)
