The overall aims of this research component were to improve the ability of contingency planners and responders to predict the movement of oiled ice with greater accuracy over longer time periods in a range of ice conditions, including pack ice and the more dynamic conditions of the Marginal Ice Zone (MIZ). The research objectives were: 1) to first improve the resolution offered by the existing ice models, and 2) to provide the ice model data outputs in formats that the existing oil spill fate and behaviour models could efficiently import and process.
