Marine Pollution Simulation and Comparative Intervention Procedures Based on Case Scenario

Abstract

Experience and evolving technology have made it possible to combat marine pollution in more effective ways. Apart from a lack of appropriate reaction resources in prior oil spill catastrophes, presently Turkiye has more potent ability. The objective of this research is to establish the efficiency of the response to marine pollution which might emerge in the Istanbul Strait with the presently available functionalities, as well as to offer suggestions over what operational and technical upgrades could be made to ramp up this effectiveness. PISCES II (Potential Incident Simulation Control and Evaluation System) oil pollution modelling and decision support system was utilized to fulfil the study's purpose. In the conclusion of the study, correlative statistics prove how to use assets in the intervention action to combat oil pollution in the Istanbul Strait, how surface vessels are employed during these operational processes, as well as the significance of the initial reaction speed.
