| An Oil-in-Ice Research Meeting was held in Trondheim, Norway on January 28-29, 2008. Center Co-Director Amy Merten attended this planning meeting for the proposed Center-funded Oil-in-Ice research.. Dr. Merten along with collaborators from the Foundation for Scientific and Industrial Research at the Norwegian Institute of Technology (SINTEF), University of Alaska Fairbanks, and University of Rhode Island Graduate School of Oceanography (GSO) met to finalize details of the group’s proposed research. This Center-funded research will be an add-on activity to the ongoing Oil-in-ice Joint Industry Program (JIP) coordinated by SINTEF. The goal of this joint research is to provide a basis and methodology for estimating routes and magnitudes of potential environmental exposures and concentrations of oil components migrating through the ice regime as the oil is subjected to a freezing-thawing cycle.

| CLEAN
GULF, the premier
Gulf Coast solutions exposition focused on the vital oil and
hazmat spill, marine salvage & port security planning and
response markets, took place November 15 - 16, 2007 in Tampa, FL. The industry-based CLEAN GULF Program Committee
met in Tampa to bring together the most relevant and
topical conference topics, training and reality-based program
available to the industry in 2007. From pre-spill planning through
final clean up and disposal, CLEAN GULF remains focused on the
real challenges, trends and solutions that affect the energy
industry and its responders. More>>

and Chemistry (www.nacsetac.org)
annual meeting and short course were held on June 13 - 15,
2007 at the Roger Williams University campus
in Bristol, Rhode Island. On Wednesday, June 13th, a short course
on Sediment Toxicity Testing: Methods to
Achieve Strong Data Sets and Interpret Results will be

sessions on current trends in benthic community evaluations
on contaminated sites, contaminated sediment assessment, contaminants
of emerging and continuing concern, weight of evidence approaches,
natural resource damage assessment (a continuation of our well-received
February short course, including case studies), metal speciation
and bioavailability, as well as other topics in environmental
toxicology and chemistry. More>>
