From the Abstract: “Dabs (Limanda limanda) caught in close proximity to the Beatrice Oil Platform have been assessed for the presence of an oil taint and chemically analysed for n-alkane and polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons.Although contamination from
From the Abstract: “There are approximately 3,600 oil and gas platforms in the Gulf of Mexico. They have become a focus of attention because an increasing number are being removed, having served their purpose in tapping sub-sea hydrocarbon reserves.
From the Abstract: “A fishing survey was carried out in the period August 1996 – December 1997 to compare the effects indiced on the fish assemblage by a gas platform with those of an artificial reef in the northern Adriatic Sea.
