• Trace me if you can: the use of intrinsic biogeochemical markers in marine top predators (2012, background): “…pollutant-associated contamination are responsible for the direct mortality of hundreds of thousands of predatory fish, seabirds, and marine mammals worldwide, and are currently driving many species to unsustainable levels through population declines (Peterson et al. 2003; Lewison et al. 2004).”
• Ongoing population-level impacts on killer whales Orcinus orca following the 'Exxon Valdez' oil spill in Prince William Sound, Alaska (2008, background): “The unprecedented research effort following the ‘Exxon Valdez’ oil spill (EVOS) resulted in a greater understanding of the long-term effects of large crude oil spills on species and on ecosystems (Loughlin 1994a, Rice et al. 1996, Peterson et al. 2003).”
• Prevalence of External Skin Lesions and Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon Concentrations in Gulf of Mexico Fishes, Post-Deepwater Horizon (2014, positive): “Understanding these impacts will require multiyear monitoring of life history parameters, as was conducted for the Exxon Valdez spill (Jewett et al. 2002; Peterson et al. 2003).”
• Cents and Sensibility: Economic Valuation and the Nature of “Nature” (2011, neutral): “…methods to investigate oil ecotoxicity, and subsequently scientific understandings of the phenomenon, that some see these post-oil spill studies as evidence of a paradigmatic shift in ecological science (see Peterson et al. 2003; Ott 2005; Exxon Valdez Oil Spill Trustee Council 2009; Hunt 2009).”
