| Abstract: | The major natural forces that will have to be contended with in the course of marine mining operations are defined for both the nearshore and the offshore zones. In order for marine mining to safely interface with the environment in a non-destructive manner, natural baselines shall first have to be established. Further, to insure that the disturbances wrought by mining are minimal, occasional monitoring of the actual operation will be necessary. The tools and techniques for effectively dealing with these problems are discussed and a pilot program of investigations is suggested. |
