Resumen

The Island Response Systems and Operations Against Ocean Pollutants, in Spanish Sistemas Insulares de Respuesta y Operaciones Ante Contaminantes Oceánicos (SIROCO) are made up by a set of integral management tools facing hydrocarbon spilling that allow the research, analysis, planning, mobilization and support for the human means decision making and material resources as an answer to the pollution, in order to prevent or minimise the polluting effect in the hypothetical affected areas by hydrocarbon spilling in The Canary Islands seawater. The results of the implemented simulation models allow the evaluation of the environmental impact through the Leopold Matrixes
