Caption from Oceanus magazine, Vol. 52, No. 1, pg. 4:
WHOI scientists Joan Bernhard (left) and Virginia Edgcomb observe core sampling devices loaded onto the front basket of the deep-sea vehicle Jason. Using Jasons manipulator arms, pilots push plastic cylinders (right) into the seafloor to collect sediment samples at the edge of the brine pool, which scientists call the beach. Scientists examine the samples for anything living within them.
