Oil spill risk assessment for a Single Buoy Mooring terminal in the Port of Taranto (Southern Italy)
Being situated in a semi-enclosed Mediterranean lagoon, the Port of Taranto represents a transport, industrial and commercial hub, where the port infrastructure, a notorious steel
A bridge between invariant dynamical structures and uncertainty quantification
This paper develops a new quantifier for forward time uncertainty for trajectories that are solutions of models generated from data sets. An uncertainty quantifier is
Very High Resolution Tools for the Monitoring and Assessment of Environmental Hazards in Coastal Areas
Recently, new steps have been taken for the development of operational applications in coastal areas which require very high resolutions both in modeling and remote
Observational Evidence of the Basin‐Wide Gyre Reversal in the Gulf of Taranto
The paper shows for the first time the observational evidence of basin‐wide gyre reversal in the Gulf of Taranto (north‐western Ionian Sea in the eastern
Transport pathways across the West African Monsoon as revealed by Lagrangian Coherent Structures
The West African Monsoon (WAM) system is the main source of rainfall in the agriculturally based region of the Sahel. Understanding transport across the WAM
Oil spill modeling for the Port of Taranto (SE Italy)
The Taranto Sea is a Mediterranean lagoon where alarming pressure is expected to further increase, due to industrialization, heavy ship traffic, and densely populated coasts.
Model-based reconstruction of the Ulysse-Virginia oil spill
In response to the oil spill caused by the collision between the Ro-Ro ship Ulysse and CSL Virginia on 7th October 2018, the Lagrangian oil
A relocatable ocean modelling platform for downscaling to shelf-coastal areas to support disaster risk reduction
High-impact ocean weather events and climate extremes can have devastating effects on coastal zones and small islands. Marine Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) is a systematic
Decision Support System for Managing Oil Spill Events
The Mediterranean environment is exposed to various hazards, including oil spills, forest fires, and floods, making the development of a decision support system (DSS)for emergency
