Ziel der Reise / Objectives of Cruise:

A) Investigation of the dumping site for level radioactive waste in the Northeast Atlantic. 1) to study whether there is already an influence on the biosphere only by the dumped barrels, indepedent of their radioactive inventory. 2) to estimate the radioactive contamination of the deep sea (water, sediment, biota), discriminating radioactivity from the corroding dumped barrels against that originating from other sources. B) Intercalibration for radioactivity measurements (Cs-137, Sr-90, Pu-238, Pu-239/240) of water samples within three experienced laboratories. C) Measuring organochlorid contaminants in the air within this sea area for comparisons with samples from land areas in North Europe.
