| Summary: | Abstract To ensure environmental protection and eliminate oil spills in the Arctic waters, it is necessary to understand the processes and behavior of oil spills in ice conditions. The article presents the results of laboratory studies of behavior of oil spilled in ice conditions, as well as time temperature calculation of the water profile with the formation of ice cover after the oil spill. On the base of the results obtained, recommendations are given on oil spill response by mechanical methods in ice conditions. The distribution of temperatures along the water profile makes it possible to evaluate the state of the frozen oil lens and the possibilities for its extraction. |
