A model for the weathering of Colombian crude oils in the Colombian Caribbean Sea

Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2017
A model that describes the weathering of crude in an oil spill caused by interaction with the atmosphere and the ocean was developed. This model was adapted to the Colombian crudes Cusiana (°API43.2) and Vasconia (°API20.7). To calibrate the model, evaporation and emulsification experiments were carried out at conditions similar to those of an oil ...

Colombian Basin magnetism and Caribbean plate tectonics

Geological Society of America Bulletin, 1976
A shipboard magnetic survey of the central Caribbean Sea has detected certain Late Cretaceous magnetic anomalies predicted in the northern Colombian Basin by a sea-floor spreading model of the region. The locations, trends, widths, lengths, shapes, polarities, and amplitudes of index anomalies 33 and 34 were specified by models derived earlier.
