“…The asymmetry of their distribution in the shallow area is, on one hand due to the limitation of the fetches for the winds in the western sector and, on the other hand, to the refractive effect that makes the wave ridges parallel to the shoreline. Thus, 92% of the observed waves propagate from the NE-E-SE sector [10].…”

The Black Sea is considered a relatively calm sea, the optimal choice for the capture process is influenced by the wave regime and its peculiarities. This sea is characterized by winds that blow towards land with greater intensity in January causing the sea to be more agitated and with less power in May, June and July, when the sea was the calmest of the year. It should be noted that the frequency of strong winds is 38%, and of those of low speed of 1m/s of only 1.5%. For the collection of oceanographic and meteorological information, data provided by the Gloria platform located in front of Romania’s coast were is used, as well as records from the three offshore buoys anchored in the Romanian seaside area and which are part of the EMSO EUXINUS research infrastructure managed by National Institute for Research and Development on Marine Geology and Geoecology - GeoEcoMar. In addition, free data such as those provided by the site of the research institute Grigore Antipa were easily accessed. Presently there are three fixed platforms in the Black Sea. Wave energy is underexploited, both worldwide and in the Black Sea. The potential of this type of energy is huge, and the environmental impact is low compared to other renewable energy technologies.

“…These physical marine conditions can interact with UXO present in the marine environment in the following three main approaches: a) the exposure or penetration into the seabed or shore; b) the subsequent burial or uncovering, and c) migration of UXO. Surface waves and underwater currents significantly impact the seafloor [22,[37][38][39] and drifting objects inside the Black Sea basin. Underwater buried objects migration decreases with water depth, with munitions in a minimal burial state being particularly susceptible to movement when influenced by a large wave or strong current [40,41] .…”

“…Further research is needed on the estimation of bathymetric variation and to predict with parameterised models driven by wave observations [33,34,37,38] . Another tool to be included in the detection and migration of UXO or artefacts expert system is represented by the bedform migration modelling as a new mechanism for buried and exposed objects [44][45][46][47] .…”

This paper aims to provide the reader with the results of the Unexploded Ordnance (UXO) survey of the defensive historical naval minefields launched by the Romanian and German Navies on the Romanian Black Sea coast, during the Second World War. This UXO survey was carried out between 2015-2018 by the Romanian Navy’s hydrographic ship “Commander Alexandru Cătuneanu” and Romanian Mine Warfare Data Center, using towed side-scan sonar technology and oceanographic observations. After explaining the materials and methodology, the results are presented and discussed: mosaics of the minefields, side-scan images of UXO contacts, side-scan images of the wrecks that were sunk in the minefields and some visible natural geological features of the seafloor. It was concluded that most of the objects discovered are sinkers, wreck debris or parts of chains, which does not represent a danger to navigation.
