Celebrating the CleanSeaNet Service. A ten year anniversary publication
Year: 2017 Language: english Author: EMSA Genre: Reference book Format: PDF Quality: eBook Pages count: 38 Description: Over the past decade, almost 25,000 images have been delivered by the CleanSeaNet service, providing coverage of 4,300 million km2 of sea surface. The number of possible spills detected in European waters has dropped by half during this period, from an average of 11 possible spills per km2 monitored in 2007 to five possible spills per km2 monitored in 2017. In this period, CleanSeaNet also supported European coastal States in responding to 31 large accidental spills and oil related emergencies. Technical developments over the last ten years and the phasing in of a wide range of satellite missions have contributed to the accuracy of the service, improving value adding services. Since the very beginning, the CleanSeaNet service has also had the explicit purpose of providing support during accidental large-scale pollution events. EMSA was founded following the Erika spill in 1999, and the Agency’s pollution prevention and response tasks were extended further following the accident of the Prestige and resulting pollution in 2002. Fortunately there have not been any pollution incidents in Europe of such a large scale since, but the CleanSeaNet service has been activated regularly (31 times) to monitor the occurrence and evolution of unexpected incidents, and is always ready to respond when needed.

Description: Over the past decade, almost 25,000 images have been delivered by the
CleanSeaNet service, providing coverage of 4,300 million km2 of sea surface.
The number of possible spills detected in European waters has dropped by half
during this period, from an average of 11 possible spills per km2 monitored in 2007
to five possible spills per km2 monitored in 2017. In this period, CleanSeaNet also
supported European coastal States in responding to 31 large accidental spills and
oil related emergencies. Technical developments over the last ten years and the
phasing in of a wide range of satellite missions have contributed to the accuracy
of the service, improving value adding services.
Since the very beginning, the CleanSeaNet service has also had the explicit
purpose of providing support during accidental large-scale pollution events.
EMSA was founded following the Erika spill in 1999, and the Agency’s pollution
prevention and response tasks were extended further following the accident of
the Prestige and resulting pollution in 2002. Fortunately there have not been any
pollution incidents in Europe of such a large scale since, but the CleanSeaNet
service has been activated regularly (31 times) to monitor the occurrence and
evolution of unexpected incidents, and is always ready to respond when needed.
