Article Synopsis
- The paper introduces a new system for modeling oil spills using HF radar currents in a northwest European shelf sea.
- It combines Open Modal Analysis, Short Term Prediction algorithms, and an oil spill model to improve the accuracy of oil spill trajectory simulations.
- The results indicated that using HF radar data provided a 40% reduction in error for trajectory predictions compared to traditional hydrodynamic models, with effective forecasting up to 6 hours ahead.
