13 The research aims to develop techniques for monitoring vehavior of 
   oil-degrading microorganisms under some oil-contained model environments, 
   characterizing marine microbial community in oil-polluted environments and 
   evaluating the effectiveness of various insitu biological oil-cleanup 
   methods from the microbial ecological viewpoint.
