Abstract
Oil spilled at sea can be dispersed by a variety of natural processes, of which the influence of breaking waves is dominant. In this study, formation and the subsequent vertical mixing of oil droplets with respect to low and high wave energy quantities are investigated through a coupled modeling approach. Methods of computing the energy dissipation rate for the field waves were extended to support the modeling of oil droplet kinetics, including related vertical mixing and transport. The developed method was first examined with literature data including an agreement with results reported in Delvigne and Sweeney (1988) Delvigne, G. A. L. and Sweeney, C. E. 1988. Natural dispersion of oil. Oil and Chemical Pollution, 4: 281–310. [Crossref] , [Google Scholar]. Preliminary experimental validation was then conducted using a full-scale automated wave tank facility at the Centre for Offshore Oil and Gas Environmental Research (COOGER, Dartmouth Canada); consistency has been observed between experimental data and model predictions for the mean oil droplet diameter under breaking wave conditions for time intervals of 1, 10, 60, and 300 minutes after the spill. Outputs of this research will be used to improve existing oil spill modeling tools and to formulate effective oil spill countermeasures.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
