Distribution of Petroleum Hydrocarbons in Goa Coastal Waters
Abstract
Average hydrocarbon concentrations in water, plankton and sediment samples collected from the central west coast of India between 14 degrees 40'N and 15 degrees 50'N were 30.9 mu g/litre, 46.9 mu g/g dry wt and 7.1 degrees kg/g dry wt respectively. The data suggest that marine plankton are useful indicators of oil pollution in this region
