karotüpiseerimine

Karotüpiseerimine is a method used in geology and soil science to extract a sample of soil or rock in a cylindrical form. This process, often referred to as core sampling or coring, is crucial for analyzing the subsurface layers of the Earth. Specialized equipment, such as a drill rig with a hollow drill bit, is employed to penetrate the ground and retrieve an intact core. The diameter and length of the core can vary depending on the research objectives and the type of material being sampled.

The retrieved core sample provides valuable information about the stratigraphy, composition, and physical properties of the soil or rock layers. Geologists use karotüpiseerimine to study geological formations, assess ground conditions for construction projects, or locate mineral and fossil resources. In environmental studies, core samples can reveal the history of pollution or changes in groundwater. The detailed analysis of these cylindrical samples allows for a better understanding of the Earth's past and present conditions. Different types of coring devices exist, each suited for specific ground conditions and sampling requirements.
