Several oil spill simulation models exist in the literature, which are used worldwide to
simulate the evolution of an oil slick created from marine traffic, petroleum production, or …

Following the 2010 Deepwater Horizon accident of a massive blow-out in the Gulf of Mexico,
scientists from government, industry, and academia collaborated to advance oil spill …

This paper reviews physical mechanisms, observation techniques and modelling
approaches dealing with surface currents on short time scales (hours to days) relevant for …

This study aims at assessing the fate of MV Wakashio oil spill, and the driving forces
responsible for possible environmental consequences of polluted coastal region. GNOME …

Vertical and horizontal transport mechanisms for marine oil spills are investigated using
numerical model simulations. To realistically resolve the 3-D development of a spill on the …

The rise in oil trade and transportation has led to a continuous increase in the risk of oil
spills, posing a serious worldwide concern. However, there is a lack of numerical models for …

We present the implementation and validation of OpenDrift, an open-source Lagrangian
particle trajectory modeling framework for oil spill modeling in the coastal waters of Estonia …

Oil spills may have devastating effects on marine ecosystems, public health, the economy,
and coastal communities. As a consequence, scientific literature contains various up-to-date …

Abstract On August 13th, 2021, the Fukutoku-Okanoba, a submarine volcano in the
Northwest Pacific Ocean, erupted. Satellites detected various pumice rafts that had drifted …

In the Mediterranean sea the risk from oil spill pollution is high due to the heavy traffic of
merchant vessels for transporting oil and gas, especially after the recent enlargement of the …
