Zusammenfassung:The purpose of this report is to summarize available literature on the effects of oil and related hazardous materials on freshwater organisms, concentrating on winter (ice) conditions. A comprehensive review of various other hazardous materials was not the purpose of this report since toxicological information on a myriad of substances is available from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and from the manufacturers. Keywords: Vegetation; Invertebrates; Fish; Birds; Mammals; Endangered species; Food webs and indirect effects; Laboratory and field experiments; Cold climate and ice studies; Tables data.
