The first two dealt with physical, oceanographic, and ecological aspects of the program. This book presents the findings of the panel's investigation of the social and economic relevance of OCS oil and gas activities and the social and economic aspects of the ESP. It describes the potential effects of OCS activities on the human environment, presents an ideal socioeconomic studies program, and comments on the current program in the Atlantic, Gulf of Mexico, Pacific, and Alaska regions. 517 3 $aSocial and economic studies 606 $aContinental shelf$xEconomic aspects 606 $aContinental shelf$xSocial aspects 606 $aHuman ecology$zUnited States 606 $aOceanography$zUnited States 606 $aOffshore gas industry$xEconomic aspects 606 $aOffshore oil industry$xEconomic aspects 615 0$aContinental shelf$xEconomic aspects. 615 0$aContinental shelf$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aHuman ecology 615 0$aOceanography 615 0$aOffshore gas industry$xEconomic aspects. 615 0$aOffshore oil industry$xEconomic aspects. 676 $a333.8/2314/0973 701 $aBrewer$b Garry D$01810640 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910957291903321 996 $aSocial and economic studies$94368047 997 $aUNINA
