Environmental Studies of a Marine Ecosystem reports the temporal
and spatial variation of both the living and nonliving resources of
the south Texas outer continental shelf. As the last major study to
have been conducted before the Ixtoc oil spill, it is of great
importance as a record of the baseline conditions and ecosystem
characteristics for both biologists and chemists studying the
effects of the Campeche disaster on the marine environment. The
book is the culmination of three years of field studies conducted
for the Bureau of Land Management and contains information on the
climatology, hydrology, and sedimentology of the region as well as
data on the pelagic and benthic biota, environmental hydrocarbons
and trace metals, and the microbiology of the area. In addition to
the ecosystem description, the data are integrated to expose
ecological relationships that exist and to identify those specific
variables which are most important for the assessment and
management of environmentally damaging impacts to the area.
