THE USE OF FLOW-THROUGH FLUOROMETRY FOR TRACKING DISPERSED OIL

Abstract
At the Baffin Island Oil Spill experimental site in the Canadian Arctic, four flow-through fluorometers were used to monitor a dispersed oil cloud over several days, providing real-time and continuous data on oil concentrations. The measurements so obtained were verified by a variety of laboratory analyses of check samples. The movements of the dispersed oil cloud were deducted, and exposures of the benthos to oil in the experimental area were calculated.
