The thickness of oil spills on the sea is an important but poorly studied topic. Means to
measure slick thickness are reviewed. More than 30 concepts are summarized. Many of …

In case of oil spills due to disasters, one of the environmental concerns is the oil trajectories
and spatial distribution. To meet these new challenges, spill response plans need to be …

An ultrasonic method was proposed to solve the problem of accurately measuring the
thickness of oil slick using a remotely operated vehicle (ROV) as a platform. The laboratory …

Reference spectral signature selection is a fundamental work for automatic oil spill
detection. To address this issue, a new approach is proposed here, which employs the …

Hyperspectral remote sensing exploits the optical properties of materials and provides
detailed information about them. From a theoretical point of view, in case of oil spills, it …

While remote detection of oil spills is well-studied, very little success has been reported in
estimation of thickness and aging of oil slicks. In this case study, spectral signatures (350 nm …

Hyperspectral unmixing is an important technique for hyperspectral image analysis. In this
paper, we took Airborne Visible Infrared Imaging Spectrometer (AVIRIS) hyperspectral …

A hyperspectral image provides a multidimensional figure rich in data consisting of
hundreds of spectral dimensions. For this research, the method of analysis for a …
