As a result, more and more so-called ghost nets became entangled in it. The tangles of nets and ropes now weighed several tonnes and could be retrieved from a depth of around 30 metres using lifting bags. However, due to the cramped situation at the buoy and the increasingly rough weather, it was not possible to retrieve all the nets. The operation will therefore be continued in the spring.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_34043\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-34043\" style=\"width: 279px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-34043\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Infografik_Auswirkungen-von-Geisternetzen_Quelle_WWF-Deutschland.jpg\" alt=\"Infographic: Effects of ghost nets.
