"Uncovering the Secrets: The Golden Age of Shipwreck Discoveries"
The increase in shipwreck discoveries is attributed to advancements in technology, making it easier and less expensive to scan the ocean floor, as well as the effects of climate change, which have exposed more wrecks due to intensified storms and beach erosion. The digitization of archives and expanded use of telepresence systems have also contributed to the rise in discoveries. While private treasure hunters still search for sunken treasure, more commercial and research ventures, along with an expanded field of underwater archaeology, have joined in exploring the ocean depths, leading to an increase in shipwreck findings.
