Beginning with the causes and characteristics of oil spills on water, chapters then evaluate a range of different detection methods, including passive optical remote sensing, active optical remote sensing, marine radar, and GNSS-R. The book then reviews oil spill traceability technology, highlighting the ecological effect of oil spills on oceanic environment, current studies on oil spill fingerprinting, and the application of stable isotope technology in oil spill tracing.
The book concludes with three key case studies with real-world scenarios, making it a practical resource for students, researchers and engineers interested in oil spill pollution, environmental science and the marine environment.
- Includes principles and methods of emerging remote-sensing technologies (e.g., fluorescent remote sensing, marine radar, and GNSS-R to monitor oil spills)
- Provides a detailed introduction of oil-spill traceability technology, especially the use of stable isotope analysis for oil spill tracing
- Describes the application of detection, identification and tracing technologies used in marine oil spill research
- Focuses on prevention and remediation through technological advances
