I recently reported an oil slick measuring app. 500m x 300 m flowing down a
fairly large river in Ont. Canada. Actually it looked more like gas or
diesel fuel on top of the water. This occurrence was at the bottom of a
confluence of falls, rapids and hydro dams. The oil slick seemed to be
coming and coming down the river, I had noticed it on two separate
occasions.
One explanation I had received was that oak leaves falling in the water can
cause this phenomenon. Would anybody know if there is any validity to this
report.
