| Abstract | Provides a comprehensive assessment of existing information in this crucial area of ocean research, indicating gaps in knowledge and suggesting directions for new investigation on the fates and effects of petroleum hydrocarbons (PHCs) in the oceans. Discussions include primary sources of oil pollution, estimated amounts of hydrocarbons entering the seas each year, analytical methods for measuring effects of PHCs, and known adverse effects of PHCs on aquatic organisms; populations, communities, and human populations. |
