A searchable literature review, in spreadsheet format, on the health impacts of oil spills. The objective of the review, published in 2016, was to identify both what was already known about the effects of oil spills and gaps in our knowledge. This resource was developed by CRGC partners.
A searchable database to help researchers recognize what gaps still exist in the area of research on the DWH oil spill's human impacts, to identify where additional research efforts may be needed. The database lists seven key characteristics of each project, including whom to contact to obtain more information. This resource was developed by CRGC partners.
The CRGC developed this database to assist business owners and employers, researchers, community members, and other stakeholders in locating information on the fisheries and tourism sectors, and on oil spill claims, from a wide variety of potential sources. This resource was developed by CRGC partners.
NEW! CRGC provides graduate and undergraduate students from the Gulf States with hands-on opportunities to work with trans-disciplinary research methods and best practices for addressing community disasters.
The Survey of Trauma, Resilience, and Opportunity Among Neighborhoods in the Gulf (STRONG) assesses the health and well-being of residents in Gulf Coast communities five years after the April 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill (DHOS). This resource was developed by CRGC partners.
The CRGC developed the Disaster Survey Literature Search and Database to: 1) better understand the extent of the literature involving population-based survey research on the public health, social, and economic impacts of natural and manmade disasters in the United States; and 2) identify gaps in said body of literature. This resource was developed by CRGC partners.
What were the direct impacts of the 2010 Deepwater Horizon (DH) oil spill on the Gulf fisheries industry? This paper reports results from an ex-post analysis of the spill using publicly available, routinely collected data on landings, revenues, and fishing effort for select fish species in the Gulf. This resource was developed by CRGC partners.
