Decadal impacts of oil spills in tropical marine environments: 40 years of TRopical Oil Pollution Investigations in Coastal Systems (TROPICS)

D. Abigail Renegar, Richard E. Dodge, Anthony H. Knap, Thomas D. Sleeter et autres

The TRopical Oil Pollution Investigations in Coastal Systems (TROPICS) study, initiated in 1984 on the Caribbean coast of Panama, sought to evaluate the comparative impacts of untreated crude oil versus chemically treated (dispersed) crude oil on nearshore tropical marine communities. The results …

Dielectric Fluids Remote Sensing Test

Oscar Garcia‐Pineda, Diana Garcia, Francisco Haces

Remote sensing detection of dielectric fluids used in many facets of offshore energy production is an advanced and interdisciplinary field of research, posing unique challenges from both theoretical and operational standpoints. Research on remote sensing detection of dielectric fluids is almost non-existent, …

Design, Fabrication, Simulation, and Initial Testing of an Unmanned Surface Vehicle for Oil Spill Sampling

Rafaela Sousa da Costa Ramos, H. Li, Isaac J. Olson, L. Diagne et autres

Abstract Detection of oil spills with aerial or space-born remote sensing resources has been deeply studied and developed over recent years. However, all these technologies still rely on in-situ verification with direct monitoring and sampling for validation. This paper presents the design, …

Overview and Outcome of the NASA Marine Oil Spill Thickness (MOST) Project

Cathleen E. Jones, F. Monaldo, Benjamin DeChamps, Lisa Di Pinto et autres

In 2018, NASA funded a project to develop and mature automated oil spill detection and thickness estimates from synthetic aperture radar (SAR) and optical imagery, based on focused field testing combined with in situ oil sampling and airborne imaging with the UAVSAR …

A Comparison Between Oil-to-Water Volumetric Fractions Derived from L-Band Synthetic Aperture Radar Imagery and in Situ Samples

Cornelius Quigley, A. Malin Johansson, Cathleen E. Jones, Oscar Garcia‐Pineda et autres

We compare in-situ water volume measurements of mineral oil emulsion sampled from an oil slick in Santa Barbara, California, to acquisitions of airborne UAVSAR data acquired in June 2022. Estimating the water-to-oil fraction using the UAVSAR imagery, we find that low SNR …

Advances in Underwater Oil Plume Detection Capabilities

Robyn N. Conmy, Lisa M. Dipinto, Amy L. Kukulya, Oscar Garcia‐Pineda et autres

Historically, visual observation is an emergency responder's first ‘tool’ in identifying spilled oil. Optical detection has since expanded to include a myriad of signals from space, aircraft, drone, vessel and submersible platforms that can provide critical information for decision-making during spill response …

Measurement of floating oil layer thicknesses at the Santa Barbara seeps in California to support interpretation of satellite imagery

Oscar Garcia‐Pineda, Frank M. Monaldo, George Graettinger, Ellen Ramirez et autres

The offshore natural oil seeps along the California coast near Santa Barbara are a natural testing site for the calibration of remote sensing systems aimed at the detection of oil spills. The main difference between these seeps and other permanent sources of …

Physical Transport Processes that Affect the Distribution of Oil in the Gulf of Mexico: Observations and Modeling

Michel C. Boufadel, Annalisa Bracco, Eric P. Chassignet, Shuyi Chen et autres

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 environment within which biogeochemical and other processes transform materials, including naturally occurring nutrients and human-made contaminants …
