Society Memberships OIL SPILLS David Cameron Duffy When I arrived in Alaska, I was virtually the only biologist who had not worked on the spill of the Exxon Valdez in Prince William Sound. As a neutral party, I was asked to put together a coalition of research projects to study why some seabirds did not appear to be recovering from the spill. With generous funding of over $14 million dollars from the state and federal trustees handling the recovery, we were able to look at food fish, foraging birds and reproduction at colonies in the Sound and nearby Cook Inlet for six years. Analysis of the data is still underway. The project formed the basis for ongoing long-term monitoring that will give us the science to manage Alaskas inshore waters in a sustainable way.

Extractions: In the event of a "real" oil spill, PORTS would provide similar projections maps to aid authorities in containing the spill and anticipating its progress. A more detailed Lagrangian trajectory scheme, using output from a modified version of ECOM-3D and tying output into Florida Department of Environmental Protection's GIS resources-at-risk database, is currently being developed. This will allow authorities to quickly identify critical habitats in Tampa Bay threatened by an oil spill. Bartow oil spill simulation after 2 hour. Bartow oil spill simulation after 12 hours.

Managing Fuel Oil Spills: Home Cleanup
Describes how oil spills generally occur and what the homeowner can do to preventthem. FS06620 1995, To Order. Managing Fuel oil spills Home Cleanup.
http://www.extension.umn.edu/distribution/naturalresources/DD6620.html

Extractions: Fuel oil spills typically occur in the fall at the start of the heating season, when oil deliverers are likely to be new and unfamiliar with the homes they are serving. Homeowner changes could also lead to confusion at oil-delivery time. The spills typically happen in the basements of homes from overfilled tanks or through fill pipes that have no tanks attached! Other spills have occurred when oil was mistakenly dumped into septic tank vents or drinking water wells. Cleanup costs will be paid by whoever is responsible for the spill. If lawyers are involved in determining responsibility, costs will be even higher. Therefore, it is particularly important that you do what you can to prevent spills from happening: If you remove your fuel oil tank, be sure to also remove the fill pipe. Call your oil company to cancel any future deliveries. Do not put an oil cap, or anything that looks like an oil cap, on septic tank vents, drinking water wells, etc. Keep tank caps tightly sealed except when filling or emptying the tank.

The surface dimensions of a discharge plume, as well as the source, can be identified and measured if it contains suspended material, such as hydrocarbons, sediments, bubbles, or dye. The effectiveness of containment methods can also be assessed using satellite imagery. 2.8-meter multispectral imagery, sharpened with 70-centimeter panchromatic, will be able to be used to identify and measure the surface dimensions of an oil spill.

http://themes.eea.eu.int/Sectors_and_activities/energy/indicators/oilspill/index

Extractions: Major oil spills still occur at irregular intervals. Analysis Related indicators Factsheets to download [Click the thumbnail to view a large version of the image] Oil spills above 7 tonnes per spill Source: Eurostat, based on data from ITOPF Note: The mass of oil spilt is approximate, as some of the records do not contain the exact amount of oil spilt. The amount spilt from tankers in the seas around the EU appears to be decreasing, despite the increase in the marine transport of oil. This is possibly because of increased safety measures, resulting in part from increasing public pressure following well publicised accidents in recent years. However, the data does not include spills and discharges of below 7 tonnes from tankers and other shipping and is likely to be an underestimate because of unreported and undetected spills. Following the ERIKA accident off the coast of France in 1999, the European Commission proposed reinforcing the control of ships visiting Community ports. It also proposed banning oil tankers with a single hull (the ERIKA was such a tanker) from EU waters and applying the same timetable for phasing out single-hull tankers as was adopted in the USA after the Exxon Valdez oil spill (2005, 2010, 2015, according to tonnage).
