Study on the sinking of the “Melanie Schulte” Hereon researchers have reconstructed one of the worst shipwrecks in German trade history Mobile Test Platform for Offshore Wind Turbines Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute have developed a mobile test platform that enables realistic tests to be performed at full load, even on offshore wind turbines out in the open. Innovative monitoring system locates subsea transmission cables with high precision and reliability A cornerstone of the energy transition, offshore wind energy supplies millions of consumers with green electricity. Export cables connect offshore wind farms to the grid onshore. Harmful substances in soft plastic lures: Risks for anglers and the environment Soft plastic lures are increasingly being used in recreational angling worldwide. Their loss in the environment has raised concerns among anglers and environmentalists regarding possible environmental and health risks. Trawls and Climate change Bottom trawls promote global warming and affect marine ecosystems Optimal sea conditions in Braunschweig Unique European test facility to support offshore wind research Broad commitment to sustainable development and cooperation GEOMAR presented major research projects at the 2024 United Nations Ocean Decade Conference in Barcelona Future Box Oceans available again The educational materials from Futurium and DAM provide a playful look at a sustainable future with the oceans / Workshops to try out starting in summer Evolution of the most powerful ocean current on Earth Ocean sediment cores reveal climate-related fluctuations in the Antarctic Circumpolar Current in past epochs New Formula for Ecosystem “Services” Ecosystem loss: Subsequent costs far higher than expected Artificial Intelligence for Improved Baltic Sea Protection Innovative Monitoring Concept for the Eckernförde Bay Receives State Funding Marine knowledge for your ears GMT's new podcast episode "Exploring the Oceans" shows the importance of marine research and DAM research missions for a sustainable approach to the ocean.
