The impact of these offshore constructions on the marine environment, however, remains unclear in many aspects. In fact, little is known about potential emissions from corrosion protection systems such as organic coatings or galvanic anodes composed of Al and Zn alloys, used to protect offshore structures. In order to assess potential chemical emissions from offshore wind farms and their impact on the marine environment water and sediment samples were taken in and around offshore wind farms of the German Bight between 12.04.2021 and 23.04.2021. The sediment samples were taken by a box grab and analyzed for their grain size distribution by laser diffraction.3.3433078.71826253.52301655.921855German Bight
