Danger of landmines, unexploded shells, and environmental consequences of the recent war on the territory of the Repbulic of Croatia

Various weapons have been developed by man for damaging a target in a manner predictable enough to be used for military purposes. High-explosive weapons are designed to cause physical damage by means of intense pulses of energy released from chemical composition made to undergo extremly fast combustion reactions. The energy may be transmitted to the target in the form of high velocity fragments of a material encasing the explosive composition. High-explosive weapons can be tailored so that blast or fragmentation is predominant. However, these weapons are mainly used in a "general purpose" form, in which both actions are strongly displayed. Any of the three varieties of high explosive-weapons (blast, fragmentation, or general purpose) may be extremely dangerous (fatal) for soldiers and/or civilians and may also cause local disturbance of soil. The fragmentation effects can be more severe in some ecosystems than in others, especially in forests where fragments implanted in trees could open a way to invasion of micro-organisms. After a prolonged period, consequences of the corrosion of fragments and the release of various alloying elements, such as iron, manganese, chromium, zinc, copper, etc., start to show. Mercury is also appearing as pollutant after utilization of high-explosive weapons. In agricultural regions the toxic elements can easily penetrate the human food chain. Of course, these effects depend on the concentration of high-explosive weapons utilized, their type and the atmosphere/water/land characteristics.
