Oil Spills in Coastal Zones: Predicting Slick Transport and Weathering Processes
This paper presents some considerations about environmental consequences of the spills and also about oil spill detection and control. Afterwards, it presents a computational structure that has been developed to forecast the time-space evolution of oil spills in marine environments. This structure was developed based on widely used mathematical formulations for oil spreading and weathering proc...
متن کاملMapping oil spills on sea water using spectral mixture analysis of hyperspectral image data
During the last years, several terrestrial ecosystems have suffered from large spill oil events threatening coastal habitats and species. Some recent examples include the 2002 Prestige tanker oil spill in Galicia, Northern Spain, as well as repeated oil spill leaks evidenced in the Santa Barbara coastline in California, and the Patuxent river (Chesapeake watershed) in Maryland. Both spaceborne ...
متن کاملContainment & Recovery of Oil Spills at Sea . Methods and Limitations .
The ultimate aim of any oil recovery operation at sea is to collect as much floating oil as is reasonably and economically possible. However, a review of past spills shows that rarely is more than 10% of spilled oil recovered from the sea surface. Although many methods of mechanical containment and recovery exist, each has its own limitations which affect the overall success of a recovery opera...
متن کاملSatellite observations of oil spills in Bohai Sea
Several oil spills occurred at two oil platforms in Bohai Sea, China on June 4 and 17, 2011. The oil spills were subsequently imaged by different types of satellite sensors including SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar), Chinese HJ-1-B CCD and NOAA MODIS. In order to detect the oil spills more accurately, images of the former three sensors were used in this study. Oil spills were detected using the s...
متن کاملCommunity Resilience and Oil Spills in Coastal Louisiana
The persistence of communities along Louisiana’s coast, despite centuries of natural and technological hazard events, suggests an enduring resilience. This paper employs a comparative historical analysis to examine “inherent resilience,” i.e., practices that natural resource-dependent residents deploy to cope with disruptions and that are retained in their collective memory. The analysis classi...
