Oil is gushing from BP’s Deepwater Horizon well at an estimated rate of 70 thousand barrels a day (May 2010). This film shows what that rate of flow looks like. It is discussed in more detail here: adamnieman.posterous.com Tony Hayward, the Chief Executive Officer of BP said, “The Gulf of Mexico is a very big ocean… The volume of oil and dispersant we are putting into it is tiny in relation to the total water volume.” Cubic metre for cubic metre, he’s right, but it’s an odd point to make about a hydrophobic substance like oil. Oil affects areas, not volumes. The visualisation of oil is discussed in more detail in this blog post: bit.ly Credits: A Carbon Visuals film Animation: Adam Nieman Sound: Ben Lavington Martin www.carbonquilt.org Video Rating: 5 / 5

A detailed computer modeling study released today indicates that oil from the massive spill in the Gulf of Mexico might soon extend along thousands of miles of the Atlantic coast and open ocean as early as this summer (see www2.ucar.edu ). The modeling results are captured in a series of dramatic animations produced by the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) and collaborators. The colors represent a dilution factor ranging from red (most concentrated) to beige (most diluted). The simulations do not make any assumptions about the daily rate or total amount of oil spilled and the dilution factor does not attempt to estimate the actual barrels of oil at any spot. Instead, one unit per day of a liquid “dye tracer” is injected in the model at the spill site (injected continuously over the period April 20 through June 20). The animation on this page shows possible scenarios of what might happen to dye released in the upper 65 feet of ocean at the spill site. The dilution factor depicts how dye released at the site of the spill will be progressively diluted as it is transported and mixed by ocean currents. For example, areas showing a dilution factor of 0.01 would have one-hundredth the concentration of oil present at the spill site. The animation is based on a computer model simulation, using a virtual dye, that assumes weather and current conditions similar to those that occur in a typical year. It is one of a set of six scenarios (see www2.ucar.edu ) that simulate …
This song was written to keep the focus on the BP oil spill disaster unfolding in the Gulf of Mexico. This is already the largest environmental disaster in United States history. Song written by Joe Monto & Steve Bartlett 1st Verse: The wave crests on fire And storm clouds below The oozing dark monster Creeps silently slow The heartache of many The future unclear We stand on the shoreline Surrounded by fear Chorus: There’s a hole in the ocean That’s breaking my heart When will it end Why did it start? Can we ever return To our blue watered bay There’s a hole in the ocean That stands in our way 2nd Verse: For the diving birds diving And the fish ‘neath the waves There is so much to do There is so much to save With bitter tears stinging For the ones who were lost Is there really a way To assess what this cost? There’s a hole in the ocean That’s breaking my heart When will it end Why did it start? Can we ever return To our blue watered bay There’s a hole in the ocean That stands in our way Bridge: Eleven souls sailing That April day It happened so quickly ‘Twas no time to pray Facebook channels: www.facebook.com www.facebook.com YouTube channels: www.youtube.com www.youtube.com Video Rating: 5 / 5
The BP Deepwater Horizon oil disaster is a human and an environmental tragedy. We must focus on the steps we can take right now to reduce harm to coastal ecosystems and the people who depend on them. One critically important way for you to have an immediate impact is to support Ocean Conservancy’s oil spill restoration efforts. Please go to www.oceanconservancy.org to help me and our rapid response team carry out the important work of restoring the Gulf. Video Rating: 5 / 5
