    • The effect of vertical mixing on the horizontal drift of oil spills 

      Röhrs, Johannes; Dagestad, Knut-Frode; Asbjørnsen, Helene; Nordam, Tor; Skancke, Jørgen; Jones, Cathleen; Brekke, Camilla (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018-12-21)
      Vertical and horizontal transport mechanisms for marine oil spills are investigated using numerical model simulations. To realistically resolve the 3-D development of a spill on the ocean surface and in the water column, ...
