Whether the result of an oil well blowout, vessel collision or grounding, leaking pipeline, or
other incident at sea, each marine oil spill will present unique circumstances and …

Photochemical weathering transforms petroleum oil and changes its bulk physical
properties, as well as its partitioning into seawater. This transformation process is likely to …

Crude oil and its products and wastes are among the significant sources of naturally
occurring radioactive materials (NORMs). These materials may be enhanced to high levels …

Several tar balls were transversely cut to investigate the fate of polycyclic aromatic
hydrocarbons (PAHs) in different layers of tar balls under natural conditions. The highly …

The development of oil exploration activities and an increase in shipping in Arctic areas
have increased the risk of oil spills in this cold marine environment. The objective of this …
