James Fowler from ECU is researching 18th and 19th century naval guns, which were broken in battle to determine, if there were any similarities in manufacturing techniques or raw materials among the battle broken guns, which would set them apart from the sustainend ones. MAS's Baltic Sea 3D Wrecksite Ontology provides Fowler's research a multitude of specimens in situ. James has now succesfully defended his master's thesis on the subject and it will be published here once released. The report for Finnish Heritage Authorities on the field work performed at Kronprins Gustav Adolf is linked as PDF below.
