Editor’s Note: A new feature here on Marine Science Today begins with this Field Report from Bilal Khan, a master’s candidate working with Prof. Michael Boufadel and his study team trying to figure out why oil pullution from the Exxon Valdez spill persists in Prince William Sound
A second and final research trip to Prince William Sound, Alaska, will conclude a study to help understand why there is still oil from the 1989 Exxon Valdez oil spill remaining in certain areas.
Contrary to predictions, oil still remains in Alaska’s beaches 20 years after the spill. Michel Boufadel, a hydrologist, expert in oil spills and oil remediation, is looking for answers.
