Environmental Oil Spill Sensitivity Atlas for the West Greenland Coastal Zone
The oil spill sensitivity atlas covers the shoreline and the offshore areas of West Greenland between 62°N and 68°N. The coastal zone is divided into more than 250 areas and the offshore zone into 12 areas. The atlas contains information on biological resources present in the area, coastal types, oceanography, human resource use in the area (fishing and hunting), archaeological sites, logistics and oil response methods.
The atlas is distributed in pdf-format, which means that Acrobat Reader (download from here) must be installed on the computer in order to read the report. Please read Internet reading guide, which is a guide to getting started with the report.
All data and methods are further described in the chapter 7 in the Sensitivity Atlas.
