Book Chesapeake Bay Environmental Effects Studies Toxics Research Program Workshop Report

Download or read book Chesapeake Bay Environmental Effects Studies Toxics Research Program Workshop Report written by Eugene J. Olmi and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "While there is considerable knowledge about the direct or acute effects that toxic compounds have on a range of organisms in Chesapeake Bay, understanding of the fate and chronic effects of toxics at the ecosystem level is, at best, limited. Just what happens when toxic chemicals enter Chesapeake Bay is complicated by the biological, chemical, and physical conditions which vary with environmental factors. The issues are extremely complex, and we are still learning to pose the best questions. The Toxics Research Program (TRP) enlists investigators from throughout the Chesapeake Bay area in a coordinated effort to address these complex issues. In February 1992, a workshop was held to allow investigators to present preliminary findings and to facilitate dialogue between the research community and the management agencies (as the ultimate users of the research)"--National Sea Grant Library publication website

Book Death of the Chesapeake

    Book Details:
  • Author : Richard Albright
  • Publisher : John Wiley & Sons
  • Release : 2013-05-29
  • ISBN : 1118756665
  • Pages : 180 pages

Download or read book Death of the Chesapeake written by Richard Albright and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-05-29 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique book focuses attention on the failure of current efforts to cleanup the Chesapeake Bay and suggests an approach often used in cleaning up environmentally damaged sites While military munitions sources contribute significantly to the pollution and degradation of Chesapeake Bay, they have been completely overlooked in many of the efforts to restore the Bay. Death of the Chesapeake explores this important aspect of the nation's environmental health. The book also recognizes for the first time that efforts to restore the Bay have failed because of the violation of a fundamental precept of environmental cleanup; that is, to sample the site and see what's there. The Bay itself has never been sampled. Thus, this book presents a view of the environmental condition of Chesapeake Bay that is totally unique. It covers a part of the history of the Bay that is not widely known, including how the Bay was formed. It presents a mixture of science, military history, and novel solutions to the Bay's degradation. In so doing, the author examines the military use of the Bay and reveals the extent that munitions dumpsites containing nitrogen and phosphorus as well as chemical warfare material are affecting the environment. The book concludes with the author's own cleanup plan, which, if implemented, would go a long way toward restoring health to the Bay. The book is supplemented with many photographs and maps.
