Oil Spill Detection with Multiscale Conditional Adversarial Networks with Small-Data Training

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
We investigate the problem of training an oil spill detection model with small data. Most existing machine-learning-based oil spill detection models rely heavily on big training data.

Electrobioremediation of oil spills [PDF]

open access: yesWater Research, 2017
Annually, thousands of oil spills occur across the globe. As a result, petroleum substances and petrochemical compounds are widespread contaminants causing concern due to their toxicity and recalcitrance. Many remediation strategies have been developed using both physicochemical and biological approaches.

Underwater Pipeline Oil Spill Detection Based on Structure of Root and Branch Cells

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
The existing oil spill detection methods mainly rely on physical sensors or numerical models cannot locate the spill position accurately and in time. To solve this problem, combining with underwater image processing technology, an unsupervised detection ...

Biomimetic Iridescent Skin: Robust Prototissues Spontaneously Assembled from Photonic Protocells

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Uniform nanoparticles are induced to form arrays (photonic crystals) in the cores of biopolymer capsules, endowing these ‘protocells’ with structural color. These protocells are then assembled into large self‐standing objects, i.e., prototissues, with robust mechanical properties as well as iridescent optical properties.

Marine insurance claims analysis using the Weibull and log-normal models: Compensation for oil spill pollution due to tanker accidents

open access: yesMaritime Transport Research, 2022
In marine insurance, the identification of the distribution of the claim size processes from given observations is of major importance. We evaluate the claim amounts due to accidental oil spill volume from tankers.

2017 State-of the Science of Dispersants and Dispersed Oil (DDO) in U.S. Arctic Waters: Physical Transport and Chemical Behavior [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Chemical dispersants were employed on an unprecedented scale during the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, and could be a response option should a large spill occur in Arctic waters. The use of dispersants in response to that spill raised
