June 4, 2010 | The Wall Street Journal [PDF]
New supercomputer studies suggest it is "very likely" ocean currents will carry oil from the
Deepwater Horizon spill in the Gulf of Mexico around the tip of Florida and thousands of miles
up the U.S. East Coast this summer, researchers announced Thursday. Each simulation took 24 hours to complete, running on several of the world's fastest supercomputers at the New Mexico Computer Applications Center and the Oak Ridge National laboratory.
Ocean Currents likely to carry oil up Atlantic Coast
June 3, 2010 | University Corporation for Atmospheric Research [PDF]
BOULDER, CO - A detailed computer modeling study released today indicates that oil from the massive spill in the Gulf of Mexico might soon extend along thousands of miles of the Atlantic coast and open ocean as early as this summer. The modeling results are captured in a series of dramatic animations produced by the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) and collaborators. The scientists are using the Parallel Ocean Program, which is the ocean component of the Community Climate System Model, a powerful software tool designed by scientists at NCAR and the Department of Energy. They are conducting the simulations at supercomputers based at the New Mexico Computer Applications Center and Oak Ridge National Laboratory.
