This dataset contains information specifically for the Arctic Nearshore Impact Monitoring in the Development Area (ANIMIDA 1999 - 2002) and continuation of Arctic Nearshore Impact Monitoring in the Development Area (cANIMIDA 2004 - 2007) programs in the Alaskan Beaufort Sea. Minerals Management Service (MMS) initiated these studies to characterize the pre and post construction environmental impacts surrounding the offshore oil development and production activities in this area. This dataset is part of the Pacific Marine Arctic Regional Synthesis (PacMARS) Project. The data encompasses the following areas from 1999 thru 2007: * Hydrocarbon and Metal characterization of sediments. Sediments were collected and analyzed for a variety of parameters including Organics (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), Saturated hydrocarbons (SHC), and S/T), Grain size, total organic carbon (TOC), trace metals and radionuclides (Pb210 and Cs137) * Sources, Concentrations and dispersion pathways for suspended sediment * ...
