This is the introduction chapter for the 1990 CZARA.

This report investigates five older and two newer exploration oil wells to determine the environmental impact in a tropical climate. The five older sites were created prior to the OCS and MMS regulations for drilling, and the newer two were created with the OCS and MMS regulations. This investigation was set to determine if these sites had a positive, negative, or no impact on the environment.

Report to Congress on the status of wetland resources in the United States. This report, a one-time effort, focuses on documenting historical wetland losses that occurred from colonial times through the 1980s.

A report on the determination of density for five endangered sea turtle species in the vicinity of Gulf of Mexico drilling platforms no longer in use and slated for removal using explosives.

Annual report of the U.S. Global Change Research Program documenting activities and progress, goals for the upcoming year, proposed budget considerations, and other information about the organization for fiscal year 1991.

The object of this report is to produce comprehensive estimates of the United States wetlands acreage and how the wetlands have diminished since the 1970s. They also surveyed the vegetation and habitats.

Annual report of the U.S. Global Change Research Program documenting activities and progress, goals for the upcoming year, proposed budget considerations, and other information about the organization for fiscal year 1992.

Bulletin providing information and news about the condition of the water-related environment, the control of nonpoint sources of water pollution (NPS), and the ecosystem-driven management and restoration of watersheds in the United States.

Summary describing the work completed at Chemical & Process Engineering Associates for "Adaptation of the Minerals Management Service's Oil Weathering Model". It includes background information on the project funding and sponsorship, goals, methodology, and findings.

The Minerals Management Service's open-ocean, oil-weathering model has been updated extensively for use on personal computers to determine what oil-weathering processes are wind and/or temperature dependent. Provides detailed user's instructions on how to use the model, examples demonstrating the model, and program listings.

A chapter which specifies management measures to protect coastal waters from silvicultural sources of non point pollution. Contains ten management measures that address various phases of forestry operations.

This chapter addresses six major categories of sources of urban non point pollution that affect surface waters. Each category is given a management measure.

This chapter addresses categories of sources of nonpoint pollution from marinas and recreational boating that affect coastal waters.

This chapter addresses three categories of sources of nonpoint pollution from hydromodification activities that affect coastal waters.

This chapter contains management measures that address multiple categories of nonpoint source (NPS) pollution that affect coastal waters. These pollutants include sediment, nitrogen, phosphorus, and temperature.

This chapter describes monitoring methods that can be used to measure changes in pollutant loads and water quality.

This study looks at the effects of offshore petroleum development in the form of a produced water discharge could be identified on the Louisiana continental shelf and placed in the context of natural, temporal variability as caused by hypoxic bottom waters (page v).

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.

A outline of wetland classifications based on the wetland hydrogeomorphic properties of geomorphic setting, water source, and hydrodynamics.
