Abstract AR

تم إنجاز هذا العمل الميداني التعرف على التلوث النفطي مشتقاته النفطية لسواحل مدينة عدن و كان تراكيز المركبات الحلقية الهيدروكربونية في الرسوبيات السطحية من 0.14ngg-1 وزن جاف في المحطة (9) منطقة الساحل الذهبي إلى 17.1ngg-1 وزن جاف في المحطة (3) منطقة ساحل أبين 2.

ينتج هذا التلوث عن عمليات نفطية محلية و كذلك حركة و مرور ألبوا خر.

Abstract EN

Field work has been carried out to identify the occurrence of oil and oil by-product pollution along Aden coast.The concentration of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAH) in sediment samples ranged from 0.14ngg-1 at Gold Moor to 17.1ngg-1dry wt.

at station Abyan coast 2.

The concentration of PAH in the sediments is unrelated to grain size This pollution is a consequence of localized oil operation and/or heavy ship traffic.
