Abstract
The trend of monitoring natural water ecosystems is increasing the quantity of identified components and thus improving the methods of determination and identification. This is very important for long-term monitoring, however, another system must be used when dealing with ecosystems after a terrorist attack. In these situations, the aim is to verify surface water pollution and, if confirmed, identify the specific type of pollution, and all this should be done as quickly as possible.
