Abstract
Chemical sensors for environmental monitoring are under active development but at the moment are of only limited value. However some fiber-optical sensor systems combined with opto-electronics and lasers have the potential to fulfil the legal requirements in monitoring environmentally relevant analytes in the ppt-range. The principles of sensors, and new developments reported in the literature or from our own research are discussed.
