A Shipek Grab was carried as backup and rock dredge was available should either other grab fail to acquire a sample of the hard substrate. Mini Hamon Grab samples were collected at 56 sites and three samples using a Shipek Grab within the Croker Carbonate Slabs Marine Conservation Zone on survey Cend2315. Once recovered, the sample was emptied into a suitable container, photographed, and the sample volume measured. MEDIN 3.1.1
