Abstract
The composition of the surface microlayer was compared at two sites, having different degrees of water pollution, near the northern Mediterranean coast. Harvey (rotating drum device) and Garrett (screen) samplers were used and their effectiveness compared; the enrichment factor shown was greater with the former.Eutrophication due to river runoff and hydrocarbon pollution from refinery effluents may contribute to an increase in the enrichment factor. Differences in chlorophyll, ATP, and pheophytin content between the two sampling methods suggest stratification of the living and inert planktonic material.
