Objective	The INTERSITE cruises are part of the marine environment monitoring work of the National Observation Network (RNO). The analytical programme carried out continuously over restricted areas is extended to a wider coastal strip. At the same time, calibration exercises are carried out in situ with local laboratories responsible for routine analyses.

Summary of measurements

-HYDROLOGY/BIOLOGY/GEOLOGY/POLLUTION.
-Hydrological sampling for analysis of general environmental quality parameters (T, S, Ph, O2, nutrients, etc.) and pollution (metals, organochlorines, detergents, hydrocarbons, etc.).
-Sediment sampling for pollutant analysis in certain areas.
-During this cruise, a study of floating waste (focusing mainly on hydrocarbons) was carried out, as well as some samples of living matter from dredging discharge areas.
