During the Antarctica research trip, environmental monitoring and assessment of the marine environment of the Indian and Southern Oceans is a major opportunity. It is possible to assess the distribution of main and minor element concentrations in surface seawater samples. Seawater samples must be collected from several pre-determined sampling locations in the Indian and Southern Oceans,and analyzed for heavy metals such as copper (Cu), lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), zinc (Zn), nickel (Ni), chromium(Cr). Using inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy, the amounts of heavy metals Cu, Pb, Cd, Zn, Ni, Cr, and other significant elements such as sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, and boron were determined in selected seawater samples (ICP-OES).
