A Lagrangian Tool for Simulating the Transport of Chemical Pollutants in the Arabian/Persian Gulf

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 due to an accident or a deliberate spill. It is easy to set up for any situat...
