On April 20, 2010, America began its more than four month journey of response and recovery form the largest accidental oil spill in history. As the lead U.S. science agency for oil spill response, NOAA was on the scene from the first hours of this crisis, NOAA provided, and continues to provide, coordinated scientific, weather and biological information and products when and where they are needed. Dr Lubchenko will examine the role of science in informing the response and recovery efforts and in addressing long-term impacts in the Gulf of Mexico.

As such, it seems inexorably destined to (re)become an essential issue for the navies in charge of securing maritime activities.
