The document outlines the program for a workshop on marine pollution monitoring systems and treatment. The workshop includes 3 sessions on topics of marine pollution, monitoring systems, and treatment of marine pollution. Presentations will be given on causes and impacts of oil spills, monitoring indicators of water quality, remote sensing methods for monitoring the marine environment, and integrated systems for monitoring marine traffic and pollution. The final session will discuss protection of the marine environment and treatment of marine pollution such as from an incident of a cruise ship sinking.
