Sea-floor drill rig MARUM-MeBo70

The animation shows how samples from the sea floor are collected by using the sea floor drill rig MARUM-MeBo70. MeBo is the short form for Meeresboden-Bohrgerät, the German word for sea floor drill rig.
With MeBo70, samples from the seabed from soft sediments and hard rocks can be obtained up to a depth of 80 meters. The samples are important for a wide range of scientific questions, for example in the areas of paleoclimate research and marine microbiology.
The transportable drill rig can be deployed from all major German and international research vessels.
