Development of an oil spill mode [i.e. model] for the St. Lawrence River / Mervin Fingas and Maurice Sydor.: En36-503/116E-PDF

"The use of modelling to simulate the behaviour of spilled hydrocarbons under varying natural conditions is improving man's understanding of his environment. This report reviews some of the history of oil spill modelling and discusses many of the factors that must be considered in plotting the behaviour of bunker crude oil on the water surface. The report then goes through the steps taken in developing an oil spill simulation model for the St. Lawrence River"--Abstract, p. v.
