Oil Spill Modelling In the East Asian Region
This proceedings is a product of the Regional Workshop on Operational Oil Spill Modelling with Special Reference to the Malacca Straits, held in Pusan, the Republic of Korea, from 31 May to 3 June 1996. The workshop was organized by the GEF/UNDP/IMO Regional Programme for the Prevention and Management of Marine Pollution in the East Asian Seas (MPP-EAS), in cooperation with the Korea Ocean Research and Development Institute (KORDI), the Republic of Korea, and the Subcommission for the Western Pacific of the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission (WESTPAC/IOC). To prevent and reduce marine pollution, the MMP-EAS has been developing demonstration projects for the application of the integrated coastal management system and working models for multinational cooperation in international waters. The workshop is part of the efforts to develop scientific tools and techniques for improving the management of marine pollution. Its specific objective is to foster regional and subregional cooperation in oil spill modelling as an effective tool for contingency planning and responses. With the participation of 50 scientists and managers from 10 countries of the East Asian region, the workshop has packaged and evaluated the experience of the region and identified future directions in the development and application of operational oil spill models. These results have been incorporated in the proceedings. The proceedings has three major components: an executive summary, papers presented, and conclusions and recommendations made by the workshop. The executive summary, together with the annexes, outlines the events and processes of the workshop.
