Twenty-four oil spill trajectories maps were developed, which predicted all possibilities and probabilities of oil spill movements. Accordingly, the oil spill trajectories varied not only in magnitude and directions, but also in the shoreline interaction time (hrs.). The weathering processes are shown...
When the Deepwater Horizon oil rig suffered a blowout in 2010 and began spilling oil into the Gulf of Mexico, scientists got to work understanding the effects of that disaster. But limited data on the typical conditions in the Gulf made understanding the potential changes from the spill more d...
AVIRIS is using imaging spectroscopy to map the occurrence and condition of oil on the surface of the Gulf, and to estimate the amount of oil on the surface to help scientists and responding agencies better understand the spill and how to address its effects. In addition, coastline maps create...

Using RS and historical maps from 1945 to 2020, Susiati et al. (2022) determined the amount of coastal changes. The DSAS such as net shoreline movement (NSM) as well as regional total suspended sediment were used, and finally, they predicted the coastline changes for 2030 and 2040. Yadav...
” Other names, including the “Gulf of New Spain” and the “Florida Sea,” appeared on maps and in publications over subsequent centuries. In 2025 the U.S.Board on Geographic Names(BGN) adopted the name “Gulf of America” for use by U.S. federal agencies in accordance with Pres....
