Database that provides information on research into the human impacts of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. The objective of the database is to help researchers recognize what gaps still exist in this domain and where additional research efforts may be needed. The database has not been designed to offer an extensive, annotated review of projects; rather, it is an easy-to-navigate introduction to the array of ongoing or completed work. The database lists seven key characteristics of each project, including whom to contact to obtain more information.
