ABSTRACT

An innovative numerical system is realized for the management of environmental emergencies due to oil spills in the International Strait of the Bonifacio Mouths through the integrated use of nested high resolution forecasting numerical models at different spatial scales, mesoscale high resolution meteorological mesoscale forecasting numerical models, oil-spill modules for the simulation of transport and dispersion of an oil-spill, meteorological observations from remote station and Lagrangian measurements of the surface current field.
