Abstract :
The paper describes the results of a study that examined the relevance of cellular automata for the prediction of oil slicks behavior. We propose a three dimensional cellular automaton model encompassing the effects of oil vertical transportation, evaporation, water and wind currents, dissolution, deposition and emulsification. The proposed model is used to simulate hypothetical oil slick behavior
