The article discusses the economic and environmental impact of oil spills. Oil spills can harm birds and marine animals and disrupt ecosystems through acute and chronic exposure. Differing views regarding the recovery of ecosystems following oil spills are ...
Where oil has been eliminated from the scene, the long-term environmental impacts are generally confined to community structure anomalies that persist because of the longevity of the component species. 关键词: oil spills environmental impact environmental recovery marine environment DOI: 10.1016/S1353-...
For years, scientists have debated the potential impact of oil spills.───多少年来, 科学家们就一直在探讨石油溢漏可能造成的影响. The implausibility of that claim should not detract from the potential impact of the plan.───这个看似不太真实的声明无法降低这个计划的潜在影响。 Faced with these...
Oil wastes that enter the ocean come from many sources, some being accidental spills or leaks, and some being the results of chronic and careless habits in the use of oil and oil products. Most waste oil in the ocean consists of oily stormwater drainage from cities and farms, untreated ...
Econbrowserestimates the cost of the spill to British Petroleum (BP) by measuring the change in the company’s stock price: “Stock prices give us a yardstick for the markets perception of a company’s long run profitability. When an event, such as this oil spill, impacts a company it wi...
These observations underscore the importance for monitoring the impact of oil spills on the health of salt marsh ecosystems in a cost-efficient way with minimum impact on the ecosystem. The salt marsh insect community is the trophic support for both terrestrial and marine vertebrates9 and herbiv-...

oil concentration had almost no effects on the amount of adhered oil. Assessment of oiling prevention based on the laboratory shoreline tank simulator proved the coated gravel performed very well as more oil floated and less oil remained on substrates and penetrated into the subsurface. Biotoxicity...
Oil spills in the ocean can cause devastation to wildlife, so effective cleanup is a top priority. One method to clean up oil spills is by burning, which only works if the oil is heavily concentrated in one area.Researchfrom Johns Hopkins University shows the effects of chemical herders, whi...
