Note(s): Marine biological sampling and collecting has traditionally been accomplished using a variety of nets, dredges, pumps and traps. Although, these devices are highly useful, there are a number of situations for which specialized sampling methods are needed. This paper will review some of the non-conventional techniques that are being developed at the Harbor Branch Foundation for photographing, collecting, and measuring population densities of marine animals.
