It’s a great idea: Ferry boats which drive on fixed routes are equipped with autonomic measurement devices to analyse the marine environment. Scientists of the HZG-Institute of Coastal Research suited this idea to the word.

These measurement devices are located in so called FerryBoxes, which analyse the water quality of the North Sea and the Baltic Sea. Now a new video was produced which shows how this works. On Sunday, 25/November/2012, 2:30 pm you can watch this video on the “13. Lüneburger Umweltfilmtage“ at the cinema “Lüneburger Scala-Programmkino”.
