sounding weights used on the Challenger, called Baillie sounding machines, were provided with a tube into which a sample of the seabed was forced when the weight hit the bottom of the ocean. Also used on the Challenger were dredges and scoops, suspended on ropes, with which samples of the sediment and biological specimens of the seabed could be obtained.
