Knowledge Portal Munitions in the Sea
AUV "Luise“, one of the underwater research platforms of GEOMAR's project BASTA
Given the risks associated with the hazards of munitions in the sea and the limitations of existing measurement methods, research is continuously exploring new approaches for a faster and more detailed evaluation of the presence of munitions in the sea.
The aim is not only the optimisation of existing methods, but also the development and application of new workflows, tools, and sensors as well as analysis procedures that enable improved detection. The greater the knowledge about the munition contamination in a given area, the better targeted solutions can be designed and executed.
