This book was released on 1995 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Describes the development and content of the West Coast Newfoundland Oil Spill Sensitivity Atlas, produced as a planning tool to assist in the preparation, priorization, and implementation of countermeasures that may be required in response to an oil spill related to future oil and gas drilling activities in the Newfoundland west coast offshore. The atlas is in the form of a computer-based geographic information system (GIS) product developed to run on a personal computer using Intera Tydac SpansMap software. Information is included on the atlas structure, base maps and image processing, GIS applications, shoreline description, biological and fisheries description, human use description, physical environment and logistics facilities inclusion, countermeasures options considered for the area, and future enhancements of the atlas. Samples of map products available from the atlas are provided. The appendix includes a catalogue of atlas data files, classification schemes, and geographical descriptions of atlas regions.

This book was released on 1999 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This literature review covers the effects of spilled oil (crude & refined) and offshore petroleum development applicable to Canadian cold-water ocean species, ecosystems, and resources. The review begins with generalizations concerning spilled oil impact and then focusses on marine ecosystems & organism groups relevant to the cold ocean waters of Canada's distinct National Marine Conservation Areas Natural Regions. Topics covered include the conditions affecting oil impacts, the role of biology in spill preparedness & response, the effect of cold climates & sea ice on oil spill behaviour, oil effects on habitat, sublethal effects of oil, biodegradation of oil, and effects of oil spills on marine plants & associated communities, wetlands, invertebrates, fish, fisheries, sea birds, marine mammals, and cultural resources.

This book was released on 2014-08-01 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: U.S. Arctic waters north of the Bering Strait and west of the Canadian border encompass a vast area that is usually ice covered for much of the year, but is increasingly experiencing longer periods and larger areas of open water due to climate change. Sparsely inhabited with a wide variety of ecosystems found nowhere else, this region is vulnerable to damage from human activities. As oil and gas, shipping, and tourism activities increase, the possibilities of an oil spill also increase. How can we best prepare to respond to such an event in this challenging environment? Responding to Oil Spills in the U.S. Arctic Marine Environment reviews the current state of the science regarding oil spill response and environmental assessment in the Arctic region north of the Bering Strait, with emphasis on the potential impacts in U.S. waters. This report describes the unique ecosystems and environment of the Arctic and makes recommendations to provide an effective response effort in these challenging conditions. According to Responding to Oil Spills in the U.S. Arctic Marine Environment, a full range of proven oil spill response technologies is needed in order to minimize the impacts on people and sensitive ecosystems. This report identifies key oil spill research priorities, critical data and monitoring needs, mitigation strategies, and important operational and logistical issues. The Arctic acts as an integrating, regulating, and mediating component of the physical, atmospheric and cryospheric systems that govern life on Earth. Not only does the Arctic serve as regulator of many of the Earth's large-scale systems and processes, but it is also an area where choices made have substantial impact on life and choices everywhere on planet Earth. This report's recommendations will assist environmentalists, industry, state and local policymakers, and anyone interested in the future of this special region to preserve and protect it from damaging oil spills.
