Markus Zimmer, research diver, on the subject of munitions finds in the North and Baltic Seas. Here: Departure of the "M/V Haithabu" to the munition dumpside "Kolberger Heide" off Schönberg
For the detection of chemical compounds released by ammunition into water, sediments, and biota, there are now suitable methods for sampling and analysing explosives and chemical warfare agents, as well as their transformation and decomposition products. Research is being carried out into the development of biomarkers and sensors with bioactive surfaces.
Within the project DAIMON, a series of Standard Operation Procedures (SOPs) has been developed and published here: https://www.daimonproject.com/standard--recommended-operation-procedures.html
