Book excerpt: This is a print on demand edition of a hard to find publication. Few animals in the world¿s oceans evoke the kind of wonder inspired by sea turtles. However, few animals are at greater risk from an unfortunate confluence of global changes, widespread disease, and a host of problems of human origin. Among these many risks to the continued existence of turtles is that from oil spills. Here is a basic overview of sea turtle biology, a summary of what is known about the effects of oil on sea turtles, a review of potential response actions in the event of a release, and case histories from previous spills that potentially could or actually have affected sea turtles. The audience includes spill responders and planners, resource managers, sea turtle rehabilitators, veterinarians ¿ and the general public. Charts and tables.

Download or read book A Worldwide Travel Guide to Sea Turtles written by Wallace J. Nichols and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 2014-03-25 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sea turtle populations around the world are endangered, and in recent years tourism has been a critical element in worldwide efforts to save them. More travelers seek meaningful experiences that bring them close to nature and wildlife, and opportunities to interact with and help sea turtles now exist at locations around the globe, from remote beaches to urban labs. In A Worldwide Travel Guide to Sea Turtles, a scientist, a conservationist, and a journalist have come together to provide a guide to the places where people can view sea turtles and participate in authentic conservation projects. Covering five continents and including the South Pacific and Caribbean, the authors direct readers to the parks, reserves, and research sites where they can responsibly observe turtles in the wild, especially nesting beaches where people can see female sea turtles lay eggs and hatchlings make their harrowing journey from nest to sea. Options for on-site lodging and other amenities are included, if available, as well as details of other nearby attractions that travelers may wish to include in their itineraries.

Download or read book Deep Oil Spills written by Steven A. Murawski and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-06-29 with total page 611 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The demand for oil and gas has brought exploration and production to unprecedented depths of the world’s oceans. Currently, over 50% of the oil from the Gulf of Mexico now comes from waters in excess of 1,500 meters (one mile) deep, where no oil was produced just 20 years ago. The Deepwater Horizon oil spill blowout did much to change the perception of oil spills as coming just from tanker accidents, train derailments, and pipeline ruptures. In fact, beginning with the Ixtoc 1 spill off Campeche, Mexico in 1979-1980, there have been a series of large spill events originating at the sea bottom and creating a myriad of new environmental and well control challenges. This volume explores the physics, chemistry, sub-surface oil deposition and environmental impacts of deep oil spills. Key lessons learned from the responses to previous deep spills, as well as unresolved scientific questions for additional research are highlighted, all of which are appropriate for governmental regulators, politicians, industry decision-makers, first responders, researchers and students wanting an incisive overview of issues surrounding deep-water oil and gas production.
