There were: Dreadnoughts (battle ships), Light Cruisers, U-Boats (German submarines), hydrophone (an underwater microphone to listen to electrical currents being made by u-boats : used by British, Asdek (first type of radar tracking), depth charger (deep explosives planted under water to blow up u-boats), mines and mine fields. Some planes were fitted with asdek and most boats had torpedoes, especially the u-boats.
Both sides - the Allies (Britain, USA, Australia, New Zealand, India, etc) and the Axis (Germany, Italy, Japan). They were used on land at at sea. Mines are laid and recovered at sea by warships called mine sweepers.
Naval Mines
During World War I, sea mines were employed extensively as a defensive measure to protect naval bases and shipping routes from enemy warships and submarines. Both the Allies and the Central Powers deployed these devices in strategic locations, leading to significant naval blockades and disruptions in supply lines. The use of mines contributed to the danger of naval operations, as ships could be sunk without warning, altering tactics and influencing the course of maritime warfare. Their effectiveness highlighted the importance of mine warfare in naval strategy during the conflict.
There were many more than 3 innovations during the Civil war: ironclads, submarines, land and sea mines (called torpedoes), steel wire used in the field fortifications, the first types of machine-gun, repeating rifles, breech-loading rifled guns, armoured railway cars.
Well, during the First World War, the Navy had many important roles. They helped protect ships carrying troops and supplies, escorted convoys across the Atlantic, and laid underwater mines to deter enemy ships. It was a challenging time, but the Navy's efforts were crucial in supporting the war effort and ensuring the safety of those at sea.
it was used to blow up enemy submarines and carry drugs into space
to party and go wild yea buddy

Naval Mines
Yes, mines do not require water to function.
Sea mines significantly altered naval warfare by creating barriers that restricted the movement of enemy ships, making it difficult for them to navigate key waterways. They were used effectively in both World Wars to protect coastlines and strategic ports, leading to a shift in naval tactics and the development of countermeasures, such as mine-sweeping operations. The threat of mines forced navies to reconsider their strategies, emphasizing the importance of intelligence and technology in safe maritime operations. Ultimately, sea mines contributed to the overall complexity and lethality of naval engagements.

That refers to burying landmines. It can also mean placing mines in the sea.
Salt is extracted from mines or sea water.
Sodium chloride is extracted from salt mines or sea waters.
sea beds have salt producing mines.
