Refrigerated sample storage

Detailed Description

We take most cores and samples straight from the loading dock into a large walk-in refrigerator (about 780 square feet), kept at the international core curation standard of 4° C plus or minus 2° C. Each core and sample must be labeled with an identifier and metadata, which follows the material through processing and analysis.
