    Description: Blue mussels were exposed in the munitions dumping area Kolberger Heide from 14 December 2016 to 16 March 2017 as part of the UDEMM project. For this purpose, the mussels were attached in small bags to a mooring on the seabed with the help of divers. The mussels were exposed directly on the seabed (position 7U) or one metre from the bottom (position 7O). Samples were analyzed on contents of the energetic compounds (EC) TNT (2,4,6-trinitrotoluene), 2-ADNT (2-amino-4,6-dinitrotoluene), and 4-ADNT (4-amino-2,6-dinitrotoluene).

    Description: Bioaccumulation of 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) and its main metabolites 2-amino-4,6-dinitrotoluene (2-ADNT) and 4-amino-2,6-dinitrotoluene (4-ADNT) leaking from corroded munitions at a munitions dumping site (Kolberger Heide, Germany) was evaluated in transplanted blue mussels (Mytilus edulis). Six moorings with mussel bags were placed east and west at varying positions near the mine mound. In order to monitor any differences resulting from changing seasons, three exposure times were chosen. First exposure period: April–July 2016 (106 days); second exposure period: July–December 2016 (146 days); third exposure period: December 2016–March 2017 (92 days). We found amounts of 4-ADNT in mussel tissue ranging from 2.40 ± 2.13 to 7.76 ± 1.97 ng/(g mussel wet weight). Neither TNT nor 2-ADNT could be detected. Considering seasonal differences, orientation and distances of the moorings to the mine mound no correlation between levels in mussel tissue was evident.
