New Scientist: Deaths of dolphins in Gulf of Mexico underestimated.
“As dead dolphins wash up along the shores of the Gulf of Mexico, it is tempting to attribute the deaths to the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. That remains to be seen, but a new study suggests that whatever the cause, as many as 50 times more whales and dolphins may have been killed than is being reported.” As was reported post-Valdez, effects did not cease because the event itself had ceased. Effects continued to sharpen for a period of time.
