This contribution describes the procedure used during the Prestige oil-spillage event, by means of an Operational Oceanography System, and the behaviour of the present prediction tools (hydrodynamic and dispersion models) applied to it. The accuracy of these tools is estimated by a reanalysis of field data transmitted by a sea surface drifting buoy, released at the time of the oil spill. The nu...

The family regulation system's policing, disruption, and restructuring of Black families communities spills over into other systems also marked by stark racial inequities - the education juvenile justice systems. This Article unpacks how that spillage magnifies harm to children; exploring structural mechanisms through which these work together compound disparity perpetuate inequity, this provid...

Particle-associated pollutants (totaling 10(7) metric tons per year) are introduced into the New York Bight by ocean dumping, estuarine discharge, sewage outfalls, eolian transport, and shipping waste and spillage. Oceanic and estuarine circulation processes dilute and transport the particles by a natural dispersal system that also tends to be highly distributive; particle-associated pollutants...
