The transport of oil spilled upon the wintertime Arctic Ocean is modelled. As the motion of this oil is almost wholly due to its advection by sea ice, it is sufficient to study the motion of individual ice floes. The observational basis for our understanding of sea ice motion comes from the trajectories of such individual floes. In this study we envision an ensemble of independent trajectories emanating from a potential site of spilled oil. This ensemble is modelled by a Markov process and is formulated in terms of the observed motion. Statistics of the modelled ensemble address the probability that an oil spill will be transported to an arbitrary region, perhaps an environmentally sensitive one. Results are shown for potential spills at Prudhoe Bay and Peard Bay.

A theory is introduced relating extrinsic colorings of complementary regions of an embedded graph to certain intrinsic colorings of the edges of the graph, called color cycles, that satisfy a certain self-consistency condition. A region coloring is lifted to an edge coloring satisfying the cycle condition, and a dual construction builds a region coloring from any color cycle and any embedding of the graph. Both constructs are canonical, and the constructions are information-conservative in the sense that lifting an arbitrary region coloring to a color cycle and then reconstructing a region coloring from the cycle, using the same embedding, results in the original region coloring. The theory is motivated by, and provides the proof of correctness of, new scan-conversion algorithms that are useful in settings where region boundaries have very high complexity. These algorithms have been implemented and provide useful display functionality previously unavailable on certain rastor devices.
