How may weather and wind effect a real oil spill clean up?
When an oil spill cleanup needs to occur, weather and the wind can make a very big difference in the recovery. When an oil spill is recognised or recorded, scientists have to predict what area of the water is contaminated with the oil. Natural changeability in wind, weather and water currents (water waves), can change the path or direction of an oil spill, which makes it difficult to clean up the mess and predict where the oil had travelled up to. The more time the scientists take to clean up the oil spill, the harder it is to clean it up because it starts to spread out and take up more space as time goes by. The Wind can cause the oil spill to spread even faster, which can make it more difficult to clean up the oil spill. In rough weather conditions (storms, rain, snow, etc.), it can be very difficult to clean up the spill. Sometimes the scientists cannot start working on the recovery immediately, because of the climate and when they can't immediately start the recovery, it is much harder to capture all of the oil. Also, when a natural disaster occurs, or if there is too much wind the scientists cannot work on the oil spill very often, which cause the oil to spread and kill many marine animals, and birds. In real life, the main challenge is probably getting rid of all the oil, because of the length of the ocean. Now, oil spills can occur anywhere from rivers, lakes, streams or ponds, but if there is an oil spill in one of the main continental oceans, it is almost impossible to clean up 100% of the oil that had leaked/spilt. I think that our experiment gives us a few ideas on how the process may be like, but I don't think that it demonstrates to us how hard it is to clean 100% of the oil spill in real life.
