Revolutionizing Paleolimnology: LAST Coring Platform Redefines Sediment Sampling Efficiency.
Scientists have developed a new coring platform called LAST that is light, affordable, stable, and easy to transport. This platform is designed for taking sediment samples from lakes and water bodies for studying past environments. The LAST platform is simpler and cheaper than previous models, making it accessible to more research groups. It has been tested in different conditions and countries and comes with a manual that uses illustrations for easy assembly.
