Description: |
An outreach program in the Gulf of Mexico has Sea Grant programs working together to help community leaders, resource managers and others understand the effects of the 2010 Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill and ways to mitigate future oil spills. As an unprecedented amount of scientific research focuses on the oil spill, the Sea Grant oil spill science outreach team has spent the last year and a half identifying common questions and concerns, searching peer-reviewed literature for answers and synthesizing the research findings to deliver pertinent scientific information to people who depend on a healthy Gulf.
