Long-Term Immunological Alterations in Bottlenose Dolphin a Decade after the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill in the Northern Gulf of Mexico: Potential for Multigenerational Effects

Sylvain De Guise et al.

Summary: Health assessments on bottlenose dolphins in Barataria Bay and Sarasota Bay revealed potential immunological effects of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, including changes in T-cell proliferation and cytokine balance. Further studies suggest Treg cells as a potential target for the immunomodulatory effects of oil exposure, with possible multigenerational health consequences observed in dolphins born after the spill.

Diet of Common Bottlenose Dolphins, Tursiops truncatus, that Stranded in and near Barataria Bay, Louisiana, 2010-2012

Sabrina R. Bowen-Stevens et al.

Summary: The largest unusual mortality event of cetaceans recorded in the Gulf of Mexico occurred from 2010 to 2014, with the majority of deaths being Common Bottlenose Dolphins near Barataria Bay, Louisiana. The study identified the diet of dolphins in the area, revealing that their main prey was the Atlantic Croaker and that they foraged along the bottom of the bay, potentially leading to long-term oil exposure.

End-to-End Modeling Reveals Species-Specific Effects of Large-Scale Coastal Restoration on Living Resources Facing Climate Change

Kim de Mutsert et al.

Summary: Coastal erosion and wetland loss in Louisiana have caused significant land loss, leading the state to implement coastal protection and restoration projects through an adaptive management approach. A 50-year restoration plan has the potential to change the biomass and distribution of economically and ecologically important fisheries species. Ecosystem models are used to evaluate the effects of plan implementation on fisheries species biomass and distribution, taking into account climate change scenarios.

Gulf fisheries supported resilience in the decade following unparalleled oiling

Savannah H. Swinea et al.

Summary: The Deepwater Horizon disaster posed a significant challenge to the Gulf of Mexico fisheries, but remarkably, the fishery sectors showed resilience in the decade following the spill, with commercial sales exceeding pre-spill forecasts. This may be attributed to increased fishing pressure and fishermen acquiring or retooling commercial fisheries infrastructure.

Ten years of modeling the Deepwater Horizon oil spill

C. H. Ainsworth et al.

Summary: The Gulf of Mexico Research Initiative (GOMRI) has conducted in-depth studies on the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill from various perspectives and recently assessed the program's accomplishments. By compiling 330 published applications and focusing on modeling efforts, GOMRI has made significant advancements in integrating diverse disciplines and domains. Various modeling tools have been utilized, with a focus on circulation models coupled with other environmental factors to track the fate of oil and its impact on ecosystems and human health.

Applying Bayesian model selection to determine ecological covariates for recruitment and natural mortality in stock assessment

John T. Trochta et al.

Summary: Incorporating ecological covariates into fishery stock assessments can improve estimates, however, model selection criteria have limitations and depend on often violated assumptions. Four popular selection criteria were used to identify covariates influencing natural mortality or recruitment in a Bayesian stock assessment of Pacific herring in Prince William Sound, Alaska. The results show most support for pink salmon increasing natural mortality, with ambiguous support for other fixed effects on natural mortality and recruitment.
