Through
a series of experimental ‘in
situ’ measurements of
hydrographical fields in an
area hypothetically affected
by an accidental spillage of
crude oil, this project aims
to determine whether, through
a limited number of variables
that can be measured and handled
easily, we can gain a rapid
environmental assessment.
The rapid environmental assessment
will take place to the south
of Majorca, on 12th May 2005,
in fifteen stations with CTD
(conductivity, temperature,
depth) devices for water columns
in a period of thirteen hours.
