Abstract: As the tenth anniversary of the oil spill approaches and restoration research efforts draw to a close, there is an increasing need for information synthesis, translation, and communication. Transfer of ecosystem-level research results to the public, resource managers, policy makers and the wider scientific community remains a critical challenge. This project will augment existing synthesis efforts by focusing on graphical approaches, including advanced computer imaging and multimedia presentation technology. The utility of these technologies will be demonstrated by means of a high impact, dynamic, graphical presentation of the synthesized results of SEA (Project /320). It is anticipated that techniques developed and refined during this work will have direct application to larger-scale synthesis, communication, and technology transfer tasks facing the Trustee Council in the near future.
