| Popis: |
Mean concentrations of total hydrocarbons were 2.95, 4.14 and 3.29 μg l−1 in seawater of Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and Qatar respectively. High concentrations were measured at the northern coasts of Qatar. Northern coasts of Qatar were found to be affected directly by water advected from Saudi Arabia seawater through the water circulation in this area. High concentration of oil (546.4 μg l−1) was detected at the area in front of pipelines extended from Ras Tanura and Ju'aymah centres of oil production and exportation in the Arabian Gulf. This high concentration was detected in the north coast of Qatar after a period of 44 days indicating current speed of 5 cm s−1 prevailing in this area. |
