Resumo: | The Aber Benoît, a small estuary on the North West coast of Brittany was polluted by oil from the Amoco Cadiz oil spill. Preliminary results from water and sediment samples taken in the estuary in May 1978, show that two months after the initial spill, high concentrations of hydrocarbures existed in the water and sediments of the estuary. The Aber Benoît shows a well developed salt wedge and upstream increasing suspended sediment concentrations. Oil was dispersed more or less evenly throughout the water column, in the entire length of the estuary. In the bottom sediments, oil had accumulated to depths of 30 cm. Sand bars appear to induce a trapping of oil in the estuary channel.
