  1. Oceanography, Ecosystems, Fate and Effects ProjectSheets Libby Stull North Aleutian Basin Information Status and Research Planning Meeting Minerals Management Service Anchorage, Alaska November 28—December 1, 2006

  2. How We Worked • Worksheets 1 • Added Pacific Coast • Worksheet 2 • 23 “resources”, all but 5 of “high” importance • Worksheet 4 • Reorganized the 23 into 5 “resources areas” of multiple attributes • Cross walked these with Impacting Factors/Activities • Those that rated a “3” for any activity were carried forward to Worksheet 5 • Worksheet 5 • Those attributes that ranked “3”(high) or “2”(moderate) for both of understanding of the attribute and understanding of impact on attribute were eliminated from further consideration. • The type of study(ies) needed to yield high or moderate for both categories were identified for the remaining 15 attributes. • Reordering and Reorganizing the Attributes and Needed Studies Resulted in Nine (9) Project Sheets

  3. The Projects • Physical Oceanography • Implementation of a Meteorological Buoy • Meso-scale Meteorological Modeling • Physical Oceanography Field Program • Modeling of Circulation • The Bottom • Characterization of Sediments • Characterization of Benthic Communities • Intertidal Community Characterization • Identify and Characterize Eelgrass Communities • Sea Ice Edge Productivity

  4. Field Studies Modeling Meso-Scale Met Modeling Met Buoy Oceanography. Field Program, Circulation Modeling Physical Oceanography Fate and Effects of Oil Spills
