The Zanclean megaflood of the Mediterranean – Searching for independent evidence
(Elsevier, 2020)
About six million years ago, the Mediterranean Sea underwent a period of isolation from the ocean and widespread salt deposition known as the Messinian Salinity Crisis (MSC), allegedly leading to a kilometer-scale level ...

Viewpoint on the Integration of Geochemical Processes into Tracer Transport Models for the Marine Environment
(MDPI, 2022)
Two types of models are used to describe the interactions of tracers dissolved in the ocean with marine sediments: equilibrium and dynamic models. A brief description of these models is given in this opinion paper, and ...

Transport and dispersion of tritium from the radioactive water of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant
(ELSEVIER, 2021)
Japan recently announced plans to discharge over 1.2 million tons of radioactive water from the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant (FDNPP) into the Pacific Ocean. The contaminated water can poses a threat to marine ...

Opening Fukushima floodgates: Modelling 137Cs impact in marine biota.
(ELSEVIER, 2021)
A numerical model was applied to simulate the transport of 137Cs released with the waters which were used to cool Fukushima reactors. These stored waters will be released to the Pacific Ocean according to Japanese gov ...

APERTRACK: A particle-tracking model to simulate radionuclide transport in the Arabian/Persian Gulf
(Elsevier, 2021)
A Lagrangian rapid-response model for simulating the transport of radionuclides in the Arabian (or Persian) Gulf is described. The model is based on a tide model including five constituents, which was solved in advance, ...

The transport, effective half-lives and age distributions of radioactive releases in the northern Indian Ocean
(Elsevier, 2021)
A Lagrangian model which describes radionuclide transport in the northern Indian Ocean is described. Water circulation is obtained from HYCOM ocean model for year 2017. The model includes advection by currents, turbulent ...

A Lagrangian Tool for Simulating the Transport of Chemical Pollutants in the Arabian/Persian Gulf
(MDPI, 2021)
A rapid-response Lagrangian model for the use in simulation of the transport of a chemical pollutant in the Arabian/Persian Gulf is described. The model is well suited to the provision of a fast response after an emergency ...

Modelling the atmospheric dispersion of radiotracers in small-scale, controlled detonations: validation of dispersion models using field test data
(IOP Publishing, 2022)
A series of modelling exercises, based on field tests conducted in the Czech Republic, were carried out by the ‘Urban’ Working Groups as part of the International Atomic Energy Agency’s Environmental Modelling for Radiation ...

A Lagrangian oil spill transport model for the Red Sea
(Elsevier, 2020)
An oil spill model was developed for the Red Sea. It uses detailed data on water circulation: instantaneous tidal currents, tidal residuals (both from a tidal model specifically applied to the Red Sea) and baroclinic ...
