An airlift is device based on a pipe, used in nautical archaeology to suck small objects, sand and mud from the sea bed and to transport the resulting debris upwards and away from its source. It is a type of suction dredge .

Airlift pumps use compressed air to lift water; Pulser pumps use a subterranean air chamber to lift underground water; Suction dredges use a variety of the gas lift called an airlift pump to vacuum mud, sand and debris; Mist lifts use vaporized water to draw seawater in ocean thermal energy conversion systems
A pulser pump makes use of water that flows through pipes and an air chamber from an upper reservoir to a lower reservoir. The intake is a trompe, which uses water flow to pump air to a separation chamber; air trapped in the chamber then drives an airlift pump. The top of the pipe that connects the upper reservoir to the air chamber is ...
Due to the apparent vindication of the airlift tactic, Chief of the Oberkommando der Luftwaffe Hermann Göring assured Adolf Hitler that the Luftwaffe could conduct an airlift on a larger scale, which was the key factor not to let the Sixth Army withdraw from Stalingrad after its encirclement by the Red Army. However the Luftwaffe was strained ...
I recommend merging airlift (dredging device) and airlift pump. It is essentially the same tool, the two articles are just describing two closely related uses. You can use an airlift to suck the sediment from the bottom or the water above the sediment. Viv Hamilton 19:18, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
