Sommario/riassunto

Discusses programs and recommended research projects that aim to improve responders' abilities to manage accidental oil spills in fresh or salt-water where there is ice. This includes spills occurring on top or under ice extending from shore (land-fast), in an area of drifting ice floes (pack ice), or onto an ice-covered shoreline.
