Goal and objectives of the project

Monitoring the sea environment two times (in March - April and August, 2012) at three coastal stations as Nhatrang, Vungtau, and Rachgia. The monitoring was at the time of  the high tide and low tide of one period tide. The factors was monitored at the sea surface and bottom layers and in sediment. They were Ta, Ha, Wind, atmospheric pressure, Cloud, sea surface state, sea water transparent, sea water colour, sea current, wave, Tw, Sw, DO, pH, PO4, NH3, NO2, NO3, SiO3, ΣN, ΣP, BOD, COD, Chlorophyll-a, hydrocarbon, turbidity, heavy metals,  pesticides, coliform, phytoplantonk, benthos.

Main results

- Theorerical results: To produce the accurate, synchronous, and continuous data of the environmental factors at the fixed stations. These data can serve in the purposes as study, teaching, and warning to the environment.

- Applied results: the collected data were the parameters in annual national environmental state report

Novelty and actuality and scientific meaningfulness of the results

to extend the data at the fixed stations to the time

Products of the project

Technological products (describe in details, technical characteristics, place):

+ Two reports and data files (of 2 survey in April and September, 2013) containing information of factors about marine meteorology, hydrology, dynamics, chemistry, and biology (phytoplantonk, and benthos) at three coastal stations
+ One summarization report containing the comments of dada, warming and explanations about the over limit value of the environmental fators
