    The document summarizes several sources that discuss how oil spills can affect water quality and aquatic organisms. A World Health Organization study from 2010 found that water quality is an important factor to consider regarding a country's water situation. Additionally, a 2015 study on water quality in the Philippines referenced how maritime disasters can cause oil and chemical spills that impact the biological components of water bodies. The sources also indicate that most fish and shellfish are unaffected by oil since it floats, but organisms on the ocean floor or in the water column can face more exposure. Lastly, oil spills are generally seen as causing short-term effects from the high concentrations of petroleum that affect water quality.
