Bahia Las Minas, Panama Oil Spill Assessment, 1986-1991 (NODC Accession 9400033)
In April 1986 a major oil spill from a ruptured storage tank at a local refinery just east of the Caribbean entrance to the Panama Canal polluted an area of coral reefs, mangrove forests, and grassbeds along the Caribbean coast of the Republic of Panama. The area affected included a biological reser...
