| Zusammenfassung |
| An innovative forecasting system of the coastal marine circulation has been
implemented in the Bonifacio Strait area, between Corsica and Sardinia,
using a numerical approach to facilitate the rapid planning and coordination
of remedial actions for oil spill emergencies at sea by local authorities.
Downscaling and nesting techniques from regional to coastal scale and a 3-D
hydrodynamic numerical model, coupled with a wind wave model, are the core
of the integrated Bonifacio Strait system. Such a system is capable of
predicting operationally the dispersion of hydrocarbon spills in the area, both
in forward and backward mode, through an easy-to-use graphical user
interface. A set of applications are described and discussed including both
operational applications aimed at providing rapid responses to local oil spill
emergences and managing applications aimed at mitigating the risk of oil spill
impacts on the coast. |
