Early detection of oil spill events is the key to environmental protection and disaster management. Current technology lacks the sensitivity and specificity in detecting the early onset of a small-scale oil spill event. Based on an infrared oil-water contrast model recently developed, we propose a novel nonscanning computational infrared sensor that has the potential to achieve unprecedented de...
In August 1999, a crude oil spill of some 296 000 litres from the oil tanker Laura D’Amato occurred in Gore Cove, in inner Sydney Harbour, Port Jackson (Australia), during unloading at the terminal of the Shell Co of Australia. Our laboratory has been conducting surveys over ten years of the intertidal organisms of Port Jackson, most intensively the rock platforms, with funding from the Shell C...
This document lays out a framework by which defensible performance metrics for oil spill response can be developed in an analytic-deliberative process that includes a broad range of stakeholders and is informed by high quality scientific knowledge. Performance metrics can be used to: improve oil spill response planning, promote institutional learning post-response, support public communication ...
The pelagic brown alga Sargassum forms an oasis of biodiversity and productivity in an otherwise featureless ocean surface. The vast pool of oil resulting from the Deepwater Horizon oil spill came into contact with a large portion of the Gulf of Mexico's floating Sargassum mats. Aerial surveys performed during and after the oil spill show compelling evidence of loss and subsequent recovery of S...
This investigation was conducted in an area of oil spill along the east coast of Thailand to examine the relations among cytochrome P450 1A activity in liver and PAHs in the bile of the tonguefish and petroleum hydrocarbons in the sediments. PAH sediment concentrations in the reference and oil spill areas were 5.03 +/- 0.42 and 0.21 +/- 0.043 microg(-1) dry weight respectively Cytochrome activi...
During the Deepwater Horizon (DWH) oil spill, a wide range of gas and aerosol species were measured from an aircraft around, downwind, and away from the DWH site. Additional hydrocarbon measurements were made from ships in the vicinity. Aerosol particles of respirable sizes were on occasions a significant air quality issue for populated areas along the Gulf Coast. Yields of organic aerosol part...
ABSTRACT: GIS can significantly contribute to correct interpretation of the signatures of slicks visible on synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images, providing a basis for analysis. Proposed geoinformation approach to oil spill mapping is presented. It includes integration of the geographical, remote sensing, oil & gas infrastructure data and slick signatures, detected in SAR images, in GIS. Vario...
The Deepwater Horizon oil spill released 134 million gallons of crude oil into the Gulf of Mexico making it the largest oil spill in US history and exposing fish, birds, and marine mammals throughout the Gulf of Mexico to its toxicity. Fish eating waterbirds such as the double-crested cormorant (Phalacrocorax auritus) were exposed to the oil both by direct contact with the oil and orally throug...
Oil is one of the important sources of energy in the modern industrial world. It has to be transported from the source of production to many places across the globe through oceans and inland transport. During transportation the chance of oil spillage over the water body occurs due to accidents or by deliberate action during war time and this causes environmental pollution. Sorbents made from st...
