Produktbeschreibung
ESI and Oil Spill Assessment is a book authored by Arockiaraj, a well-known researcher in the field of environmental science and coastal management. The book focuses on the use of Environmental Sensitivity Index (ESI) and integrated modeling with remote sensing and GIS for oil spill risk assessment along the Chennai coast in Tamil Nadu, India. The book starts by introducing the concept of ESI and how it can be used to assess the potential impact of oil spills on the environment. It explains the methodology used for ESI mapping, including the identification of sensitive habitats, species, and resources. The book then discusses the use of integrated modeling with remote sensing and GIS for oil spill risk assessment. It explains the use of different models, such as oil spill trajectory models, fate and transport models, and ecological models, to predict the potential impact of oil spills on the environment. The author also explores the importance of oil spill contingency planning and response strategies. The book provides insights into the various response techniques, including mechanical, chemical, and biological methods, and the challenges associated with each of them. Overall, ESI and Oil Spill Assessment is a valuable resource for researchers, policymakers, and practitioners in the field of environmental science and coastal management. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the current state-of-the-art in oil spill risk assessment and response strategies, with a particular focus on the Chennai coast in Tamil Nadu, India.
