Sampling Cruises 2023

In April and May, we went on two sampling campaigns taking samples in and nearby offshore wind farms and at reference locations in the Belgian and German parts of the North Sea. Sediment was collected with a box corer and will be used for the analysis of organics, inorganics, and particles. Water samples were taken at 10 m of depth and will be used to analyze inorganics, like metals. Finally, seawater was filtered over three different filters allowing us to assess the number of coating particles. Read more about our sampling cruises here.
