Objective	The objective of the CAMELIA cruises (4 in all) is to supply scientific teams (from IFREMER, BRGM, IFSTTAR and Universities of Nantes and Angers) with environmental samples (water, suspended matter, plankton, etc.) essential for characterizing the study area, assessing anthropogenic contamination and studying the biogeochemical functioning of the Loire estuary. The related project is the network of environmental monitoring and surveillance of the Universe Sciences Observatory of Nantes and Angers (RS2E - OSUNA) 2012-2015".

Summary of measurements

-Samples of raw water taken by pumping (pumping system and Teflon tubing used).
-Pretreatment of raw water samples (separation of solid and liquid phases by filtration at 0.45 µm) done on board in a clean chemistry container to limit modifications to the partition equilibrium of analytes and to avoid any contamination of samples by ambient atmospheric particles.
-Total-Hg online analyses.
