What Happened to the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill and the Fish Kill
What Happened to the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill and the Fish Kill
I began conducting marine science research in the northern Gulf of Mexico in 2006, and was immediately taken by the diversity of fishes, water bodies, habitats and economic sectors along the coast. This region is still home to my favorite saltwater environments – places like the Chandeleur Islands off Louisiana, and Florida’s St. Joseph Bay.
From 2006-2009, I worked with teams studying the ecology of fishes that inhabit the tidal salt marshes and underwater seagrass meadows of the northern Gulf. As the Deepwater Horizon spill unfolded, I shared many other people’s deep concerns about the terrible human toll, and the ecological and economic damage to places like the sensitive shores where I had worked.
Ten years later, though, there’s some welcome good news. In our research, my colleagues and I have found that the Deepwater Horizon spill did not appear to cause significant oiling injury to coastal fish populations.

I am sure most of the workers on that rig during the disaster will never truly recover .

I hope you're wrong, but, based on past experience, you're right, ande they will never be made whole.hydro wrote:I am sure most of the workers on that rig during the disaster will never truly recover .
