持续了85d的墨西哥湾钻井漏油总算被遏制住了,科学家们想知道泄漏原油的最终去向.上周发布的一篇联邦报道应该为这一问题揭开答案.实际上,在报道正式公布之前,政治斡旋和媒体宣传已经向科学家们透露了某些信息.根据美国内政部与美国海洋和大气管理局(NOAA)的联合新闻机构CNN的报道,此次事故泄漏的原油总量高达490万桶,“75%的泄漏原油已经被人类或自然清除”. After 85 days of drilling in the Gulf of Mexico, oil spills were finally stopped and scientists were wondering where the crude oil would leak. A federal report released last week should reveal the answer. In fact, before the official announcement , Political mediation and media outreach have revealed some of the information to scientists.According to CNN, a joint news agency with the U.S. Department of the Interior and Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the total amount of crude oil leaked from the accident reached 4.9 million barrels , “75% of the leaked crude has been cleared by humans or naturally.”
