Abstract

A new drift sampler construction and a procedure for its usage on stream sites with depth up to 0.6 m all year, and at deeper sites during the ice-cover period have been described. This device gives an opportunity to collect samples separately from distinct layers of water column, which is important for study of vertical distribution in drift.
