Modeling the origin and fate of waste materials on the south-eastern Adriatic coast (Croatia)
Waste accumulation was observed on the southeast coast of Adriatic, Croatia on 21st November 2010. The labels on the waste suggested that it arrived from Albania. The meteorological conditions are analysed using available meteorological measurements from Croatia and Montenegro and the ALADIN model data on 8 and 2 km resolution. Heavy rainfall event of 8-10 November 2010 occurred over Albania is estimated to be the most likely cause of a flash flood that washed the waste to the sea. The water level measurements on Bojana river in Montenegro show substantial increase following that rainfall event. The sea currents responsible for pollution transport are computed using ROMS ocean model, forced with ALADIN 2km outputs, major Adriatic river inflows and tides at the open boundary. The results from ocean model are used as input to the forward trajectory computations initiated of the coast of Albania on 8th November 2010. Many of these trajectories end on the southeastern Adriatic coast in Croatia.
