The US Geological Survey MI Water Science Center is providing a funding opportunity to a Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) partner. This grant aims to foster significant collaboration among expert teams specializing in hydrodynamic and sediment and oil transport modeling. The primary objective is to advance the development of sophisticated models capable of accurately simulating the suspension, transport, and deposition processes of residual submerged oil within riverine systems. This critical research specifically addresses challenges highlighted by the Enbridge Line 6B heavy oil release into the Kalamazoo River in July 2010, seeking to enhance predictive capabilities for similar environmental incidents.
