Oil on troubled waters.
either by changing the ice sheet's basal thermal regime or by introducing water into the path of the ice stream through periodic drainage events. If this proves to be the case, it would substantially change our understanding of the effect of subglacial lakes on ice-sheet stability. It indicates that basal hydrology needs to be accounted for in numerical models of ice-sheet motion because it has...
متن کاملOptical Closure in Coastal Waters
Our scientific objectives encompass both empirical and theoretical investigations. Empirical objectives are: 1) develop new instruments and methods for measuring ocean-optical properties, 2) conduct systematic coastal ocean measurements for testing closure and for characterizing optical properties and the processes related to their changes, and 3) perform laboratory experiments to investigate o...
متن کاملWater Quality in Coastal Waters
The aim of this work is to introduce the potential of satellite-based remote sensing data to agencies responsible for monitoring and managing water quality in the coastal zone of Western Australia. There exists a knowledge and/or expertise gap between satellite data providers and potential end users. This project aims to close the gap by developing a fundamental management tool that will be geo...
متن کاملModelling of dispersant application to oil spills in shallow coastal waters
Application of dispersants in shallow water remains an issue of debate within the spill response community. An experimental oil spill to evaluate potential environmental impacts and benefits of applying dispersants to spills in shallow water has therefore been under consideration. One site being considered was Matagorda Bay, on the Texas coast. Coupled three-dimensional oil spill and hydrodynam...
متن کاملExperimental L-Band Airborne SAR for Oil Spill Response at Sea and in Coastal Waters
Satellite synthetic aperture radar (SAR) is frequently used during oil spill response efforts to identify oil slick extent, but suffers from the major disadvantages of potential long latency between when a spill occurs and when a satellite can image the site and an inability to continuously track the spill as it develops. We show using data acquired with the Uninhabited Aerial Vehicle SAR (UAVS...
