Summary describing the work completed at Louisiana Universities Marine Consortium for 'Gulf of Mexico University Initiative: Studies of Long-Term Effects of Oil and Gas Production.' It includes background information on the project funding and sponsorship, goals, methodology, and findings.

An historical evaluation and documentation of the offshore oil and gas industry and its impact on the economy of Southern Louisiana from its inception in the early decades of the twentieth century.

Environmental Sensitivity Index (ESI) provides shoreline classification and a sensitivity ranking that is important for oil spill planning. This system has not been used in Louisiana due to the rapid changes of the shoreline, which is a potential threat due to high risk of oil spill in that region. This research paper's goal is to develop remote sensing classification procedures to create an ESI map for Louisiana and other areas that present similar issues.

This report is about the composition of biofouling communities for three different offshore platforms in the Gulf of Mexico. Research methods included a video survey, high resolution photography, scrape samples, and settling plates.

This report is about the observations of deepwater in the Gulf of Mexico.

This report is about the preparation of the interactive key for northern Gulf of Mexico.

This report is about the study of interactions of the Gulf of Mexico eddies with topography and the dynamical of submarine canyons in the Gulf of Mexico.

This report is about offshore oil and gas structures in the Gulf of Mexico.

This issue brief discusses pay secrecy policies that nearly half of workers nationally reported that they were either contractually forbidden or strongly discouraged from discussing their pay with their colleagues. Includes a listing of state laws that protect employees in discussing pay and compensation.

This report is about bringing together new and recent research.

This is a study that looks at the potential biotechnology application of organisms attached to offshore platforms and wells.

This report is about the status of existing reduced dimensional models of the dynamics of the Louisiana Coastal Current. Local, wind-driven models reproduce credibly the flow variability during the winter season.

Summary describing the work completed at the Louisiana State University Center for Coastal Energy and Environmental Resources' Coastal Fisheries Institute for the seasonal and spatial variation in the biomass and size frequency of fish associated with oil and gas platforms in the Northern Gulf of Mexico. It includes background information on the project funding and sponsorship, goals, methodology, and findings.

This report is about the study of subsurface high-speed current jets in the deep water of the Gulf of Mexico.

This report examines the interactions between changes in crude oil and natural gas prices, oil and gas production in the state offshore waters and measures of economic activities in Louisiana.

This report is about the cooperative research on sperm whales and their response to seismic exploration in the Gulf of Mexico.

Summary describing the work completed at the Louisiana Universities Marine Consortium for the university research initiative on the effects of offshore petroleum development in the Gulf of Mexico on the effects of tar on the Louisiana coastline. It includes background information on the project funding and sponsorship, goals, methodology, and findings.

This study is about the history and evolution of the offshore oil and gas industry in southern Louisiana in an objective and comprehensive way.

This report is about the Northern Gulf of Mexico Continental Slope Study.

This report is about the study of the inner shelf currents over the Louisiana and Texas shelf.

This report is about the changing patterns of ownership and control in the petroleum industry.

This study examines the expansion of offshore oil and gas development and its effects on shaping Louisiana's culture, geography, society and economy.

This report is about the explosive removal of offshore structures in aquatic environments. The scope is worldwide. The sensitive marine resources considered in this analysis include marine fishes, marine turtles, and marine mammals.

This survey report discusses deepwater projects centered in the Gulf Coast. Their study is interested in vendors or contractors supplying the equipment used on the deck and process in extracting oil. The authors are also interested in the socioeconomic effects of the oil extracting on local communities.
