3 Introduction With the development of the economy and the increase of the energy consumption, accidental oil spills happen frequently from offshore oil platforms, pipe pp laying, ship collision or illegal discharge. According to the statistics, more than 2353 oil spill accidents occurred globally during Oil spill has very seriously impacts on marine environment, marine biology and marine economy especially on the people activities in the coastal area

4 With the rapid development of the satellite, remote sensing has become one of the most important and effective tools in oil spill detection such as the visible/infrared sensors (MODIS, FY), SAR, Lidar and etc. Oil spill detection by visible / Infrared sensors Oil spill detection by Synthetic Aperture Radar Oil spill detection by Laser / Lidar

11 Oil spill detection by visible/infrared sensors Physical basis: Visible The difference of reflectance between oil and sea water Infrared The difference of emissivity and absorption coefficient between oil and seawater Remote Sensing sensors: NOAA/AVHRR MODIS MERIS HY-1b FY-3 Ocean color sensors, Landsat, CBERS, IKONOS, Quickbirds, etc

12 Background W. Tseng, et al (1994) : Gulf oil pollution monitoring using NOAA/AVHRR data IGARSS 94 Otremba&Piskozub( ):Study the model of oil spill monitoring using optical method. Chuanmin Hu et al.(2003,2008,2009) ) used MODIS data to study optical properties, sun glitter of the oil and seawater; natural oil spill; Gulf of Mexico oil accident. Chust&Sagarminaga(2007)used MISR data to study oil spill in sun glitter area. Maria Adamo et al.(2009)found the oil spill could be detected in sun glitter area and it is not so easy to find the oil spill in other area.

13 The main problems to be resolved: Which spectral band suitable for oil spill monitoring? Which conditions (geometric or light) are better for oil spill monitoring? Data processing or other new theory?

(geometric, light, sea states) Oil spill monitoring using multi-sensors (MODIS FY3A/MERSI HJ-1A/1B etc) The possibilities to retrieve the thickness of oil spill using optical sensor, the theoretical model?

20 Slicks appear lighter than clean seawater when viewed at a shallow angle and are invisible at steeper angles, except within the glint pattern from John L. Berry

21 The theory of SAR oil spill detection: Oil spill detection by SAR Oil spill changes water surface properties and causes wind wave aegenerating difficult. Rd Radar backscattering from sea surface with oil spill coverage is much lower compared with other oil spill free area

22 By damping the short surface waves and hence reducing the backscatter, the oil spills appeared as dark patches on SAR images. ERS-1 SAR image acquired on 20 May 1994 at 14:20 UTC over the Pacific Ocean east of Taiwan; orbit: 14874, frame: 2364, frame center: 23 01'N, 'E, imaged area: 100 km x 100 km. A northbound ship (bright spot at the front of the black line) was discharging g oil. The trail widened due to the dispersion of oil. (from Mitnik et al 2006)

24 Research background: Pavlakis (1996) used ERS/SAR data to study oil spill distribution in Mediterranean sea Solberg et al. (1999) classified oil spill using statistical features and prior knowledge. Gade and Alpers (1999) found most of oil spill happened around main shipping lines using ERS-2/SAR data. Lu (1999) used around 5000 SAR images to study oil spill distribution in south east Asia seas. Fiscella et al.(2000) classified oil spill and natural features using Mahalanobis. Frate et al.(2000) used multilayer perceptron (MLP) neural network to classify oil spill features. Topouzelis et al. (2004) used RBF neural network to classify oil spill. Keramitsoglou et al. (2006) used fuzzy logic to give the possibility of oil spill

51 Remarks The brief summaries about oil spill monitoring i using multi-sensors carried out in Ocean remote sensing institute, Ocean University of China are introduced. Many problems are still needed to be resolved: 1, Optical sensor optical features of oil spills show quite different. The theoretical explanations are still needed to be confirmed. Sun glitter, reflectance ratio? Oil spill thickness? 2, SAR data oil spill and the look likes classification? Automatically? what htkidif kind information can be retrieved ti dfrom multi-polarization l i SAR data? 3, Lidar detection oil type classification for main 4 to 5 types seems no problems at present time. The possibilities for oil thickness? It is very difficult to measure the thickness of oil spill at the laboratory at the present time
