The Underwater Behavior of Oil and Gas Jets and Plumes – Eos
Exploring how the multiscale interaction between underwater oil and gas plumes and the environment impacts plume composition and trajectory.
Natural seeps on the continental margins release hydrocarbons in the form of liquid oil and natural gas. Hydrocarbons may also be leaked from sunken vessels and damaged pipelines. The most dramatic example of an anthropogenic hydrocarbon release in recent history is the Deepwater Horizon oil well blowout in the Northern Gulf of Mexico in 2010.
