Outline of Final Research Achievements

The analysis of inhabiting animals such as mongooses and habu-snakes was found to be efficient for the monitoring of harmful compounds on the coral islands, such as Okinawa. On the other hand, monitoring of shallow groundwater by means of passive samplers was efficient to monitor the compounds emitted into the coastal sea water. The relation between the results of these two analyses were observed, hence the combination of these methods can serve as a comprehensive approach for the monitoring of harmful compounds which especially applicable to the environment of coral islands.
