Book excerpt: Excerpt from Marine Pollution Monitoring (Petroleum): Proceedings of a Symposium and Workshop Held at the National Bureau of Standards, Gaithersburg, MD., May 13-17, 1974 The objective of the Pilot Project on Marine Pollution Monitoring is to initiate and expand an internationally coordinated program for marine pollution monitoring, initially in selected ocean areas, in order to acquire and exchange among nations intercomparable data for making assessments of the periodic state and degrees of contamination of the marine environment; and, to establish the organizational machinery required for further development and expansion of marine pollution monitoring. The objectives of the Workshop were (a) to provide scientific and technical advice, based mainly on information supplied by the Symposium, as to the methodology (observation and reporting, sampling, sample preservation, analysis, standards criteria, data handling) to be used or initiated during the Pilot Project, and also to identify future studies needed to expand the Pilot Project; (b) to recommend technical assistance programs and training and education projects that would provide pertinent support to developing countries to enable them to establish marine pollution monitoring activities. These Proceedings contain summaries of, plenary speeches by invited guests. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
