A three-step model to assess shoreline and offshore susceptibility to oil spills: The South Aegean (Crete) as an analogue for confined marine basins
Abstract This study combines bathymetric, geomorphological, geological data and oil spill predictions to model the impact of oil spills in two accident scenarios from offshore Crete, Eastern Mediterranean. The aim is to present a new three-step...

Three-step modernization of the ocean: Modeling of carbon cycles and the revolution of ecological systems in the Ediacaran/Cambrian periods
Abstract Important ecological changes of the Earth (oxidization of the atmosphere and the ocean) increase in nutrient supply due to the break-up of the super continent (Rodinia) and the appearance of multi-cellular organisms (macroscopic algae and...

Rewards and Challenges of Seismic Monitoring for CO2 Storage: A Fluid Substitution Study in the Gippsland Basin, Victoria, Australia
Abstract Seismic observation has key advantages that, in the right geological conditions, make it extremely valuable for CO2 storage monitoring. Among surface techniques allowing the observation of the entire storage complex, it has by far the...

Field Monitoring in Sample Sites: Hydrological Response of Slopes with Reference to Widespread Landslide Events
Abstract The field monitoring is an essential tool to define geotechnical model able to assess landslide stability conditions, with particular reference to the hydrological response of the slopes in presence of widespread landslide events — the...

Influence of Different Operation Strategies on Transient Solar Thermal Power Plant Simulation Models with Molten Salt as Heat Transfer Fluid
Abstract One of the advantages of solar thermal power plants (STPPs) with molten salt as heat transfer fluid is the direct storage system. This means that the thermal energy collected by the solar field and the electric power generation can be fully ...
