Biologists Howard Sanders and George Hampson collaborated with chemist and gas chromatography pioneer Max Blumer to study persistent coastal impacts from the West Falmouth oil spill in 1969. Successive generations of WHOI biologists and chemists have followed their footsteps, continuing to break new ground studying oil spills in the marine environment. (Courtesy of WHOI Archives)
