Year: 2014

&lt;div&gt; &lt;p&gt;A method is presented and preliminarily applied to the optimization of the allocation of oil-slick combating coastal stations in a coastal basin. The decision support methodology is based on the annual simulation of the circulation in the basin according to climatologic data, on the oil spill simulation by the method of &lt;em&gt;Lagrangian&lt;/em&gt; particles, on the analysis of the quantified stochastic environmental effects from a number of probable oil spill sources dis
