Organic matter of various composition is present in soils and sediments ranging from simple compounds to the very complex proteins, etc. Within the pollutant analysis in soils and sediments the total organic carbon (TOC) content is determined. In addition to this form carbon may be present as elemental or inorganic ones. TOS identification and quantitation methods may be qualitative or quantitative with prior sample preparation. It is recommended catalytic combustion of samples at high temperatures with Pt catalyst and IR detection of evolved CO2.

In this paper are represented the results of the pollution character of soils and water during the 2002. Taking into consideration the changes of analyzed parameters in during the analyzed period, there have been noticed strong periodical pollutions by organic substances, nutrients and industrial polluters with the growing tendency regarding frequency which make worse the quality of soil-water the drainage basin of the river Tara, unique in Europe is proposed. That is the reason why the monitoring of the mentioned potential, with support of the space informatics technology as the prerequisite of its management.
