Ships, aircraft, mines, rejected munitions (including chemicals),
lost trawls, archaeological remains, contraband and a host of
amphorae lie on, or are buried in, the seabed. These proceedings
address the issues that determine how and where these objects
are found, bringing together the clients and the enabling technology
for these operations from the shallow shelf seas down to five
kilometres in the deep oceans.
