Accidental oil spills in ocean may occur during exploration, production, transportation and
use. The spilled oil frequently reaches shoreline where it may harm more or less the …

The Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010 was the largest in US history,
covering more than 1,000 km of shorelines and causing losses that exceeded $50 billion …

Accurate and effective observation of ocean waves is critical for many applications including
weather forecasting, marine resources development, etc. In marine environments where …

In river plastic pollution research little is known about the detailed pathways and
interruptions that occur during the journey of macroplastic debris (> 5 cm) from land to sea …

Oil spill incidents and massive discharge of oily industrial wastewater have a profound
negative impact on the global water ecosystem. Super-wettable membranes have emerged …

Trajectory and fate modeling of the oil released during the Deepwater Horizon blowout was
performed for April to September of 2010 using a variety of input data sets, including …

Predicting the distribution of oil, buoyant plastics, flotsam, and marine organisms near the
ocean surface remains a fundamental problem of practical importance. This manuscript …

Physical transport processes such as the circulation and mixing of waters largely determine
the spatial distribution of materials in the ocean. They also establish the physical …

A quantitative understanding of spilled oil transport in a nearshore environment is
challenging due to the complex physicochemical processes in aqueous conditions. The …

The statistics of submesoscale divergence and vorticity (kinematic properties, KPs) in the
Alboran Sea (Mediterranean Sea) are investigated, using data from drifters released during …
