Sar Technology for Urban Coastal Resilience: Mitigating Accidental Oil Spills in the Caspian Sea

Accidental oil spills in marine environments pose substantial threats to ecosystems, coastal cities, populations, and biodiversity. This paper underscores the critical importance of timely environmental monitoring to swiftly implement effective measures and prevent emergency situations. Remote sensing, particularly Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) technology, emerges as a pivotal method for rapid identification of environmental issues. The study focuses on the Caspian Sea, emphasizing the need for timely detection, localization, and control of pollution sources, especially in regions with extensive oil extraction. Through the analysis of Sentinel-1 images, the paper demonstrates SAR technology's role in enhancing safety and sustainability in the urban resilience of coastal cities, providing valuable insights for the planning of mitigating events.
