What light does nearly twenty-five years of scientific study of the
Exxon Valdez oil spill shed on the fate and effects of a spill? How
can the results help in assessing future spills? How can ecological
risks be assessed and quantified? In this, the first book on the
effects of Exxon Valdez in fifteen years, scientists directly
involved in studying the spill provide a comprehensive perspective
on, and synthesis of, scientific information on long-term spill
effects. The coverage is multidisciplinary, with chapters
discussing a range of issues including effects on biota, successes
and failures of post-spill studies and techniques, and areas of
continued disagreement. An even-handed and critical examination of
more than two decades of scientific study, this is an invaluable
guide for studying future oil spills and, more broadly, for
unraveling the consequences of any large environmental disruption.
