Preface
This book deals with the results of the research project funded by a Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research (S) of the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (No. 23226017) from FY 2011 to FY 2015 with the title “A new spilled oil and gas tracking autonomous buoy system and application to marine disaster prevention system”. The book was written because we thought that a book is the best way to describe the details of our views, methods, and results as a whole project. The research project was initiated with the Deepwater Horizon oil spill accident off Louisiana USA in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010, considered to be the largest in the history of the petroleum industry, following our past research on spilled oil tracking autonomous buoy systems to autonomously track spilled oil drifting on the sea surface and obtain useful data in real time. This project was carried out by four groups: Group 1 dealt with the development and experiments of an underwater autonomous robot equipped with sensors for measuring oceanographic data and dissolved gas and oil, Group 2 dealt with the development and experiments of an autonomous surface vehicle equipped with sails, the size of which was adjustable, and a detecting sensor of oil slicks on the sea surface, Group 3 dealt with simulation of the behavior of underwater oil and gas after a blowout fro
