Abstract

In 1985 the CIOH started a program of marine pollution monitoring by oil in the Colombia Caribbean. With this project Colombia was integrated to the CARIPOL Program of IOCARIBE, which inputs information to CARIPOL since march 1985. During 1985 the zone between punta Canoas and Barbacoas was studied, where concentrations of dissolved and disperse hydrocarbons were detected, mainly in Cartagena bay with average values between 0.7 and 17.9 ug/L. The greater amount of these residues is attributed to maritime transportation, dock activity and industrial uses.
