In recent years the level of oil and gas activity in the Arctic Ocean Basin has increased significantly. Permitting and reasonably safe execution of these activities in ice-infested waters require risk assessments that stretch the limits of currently available oil spill trajectory models. Research has suggested that using a coupled atmosphere-ice-ocean model to simulate oil spill trajectories in ice-infested waters could provide higher accuracy than traditionally parameterized models. This study is a first step towards the development of such a model within the framework of the MIT general circulation model. Oil spills are simulated by continuous release of passive tracers at ten locations in the Arctic Ocean Basin, and tracked in the ocean...
