Geochemical analysis of SAR backscattering (Sentinel-1) on global ocean oil spill cases
European Journal of Remote Sensing, 2023 The oil spill is one of the most impactful sources of marine pollution on the ocean surface, detected by the SAR sensors as dark areas, regions with low backscatter values. Due to the complex mixture of hydrophobic hydrocarbons, mineral oil spills change

Journal of Research of the National Institute of Standards and Technology, 2001 For more than a decade NIST conducted research to understand, measure and predict the important features of burning oil on water. Results of that research have been included in nationally recognized guidelines for approval of intentional burning. NIST measurements and predictions have played a major role in establishing in situ burning as a primary oil

Detection and Classification of Land Crude Oil Spills Using Color Segmentation and Texture Analysis
Journal of Imaging, 2017 Crude oil spills have negative consequences on the economy, environment, health and society in which they occur, and the severity of the consequences depends on how quickly these spills are detected once they begin. Several methods have been employed for

CranSLIK v2.0: improving the stochastic prediction of oil spill transport and fate using approximation methods [PDF]
, 2015 Oil spill models are used to forecast the transport and fate of oil after it has been released. CranSLIK is a model that predicts the movement and spread of a surface oil spill at sea via a stochastic approach.
