Marine oil spills pose a significant threat to ocean and coastal ecosystems. In addition to costs incurred by response activities, an economic burden could be experienced by stakeholders dependent on coastal resources. Decision support tools for oil spill response (OSR-DSTs) have been playing an important role during oil spill response operations. This paper aims to provide an insight into the status of research on OSR-DSTs and identify future directions. Specifically, a systematic review is conducted including an examination of the advantages and limitations of currently applied and emerging decision support techniques for oil spill response. In response to elevated environmental concerns for protecting the polar ecosystem, the review includes a discussion on the use of OSR-DSTs in cold regions. Based on the analysis of information acquired, recommendations for future work on the development of OSR-DSTs to support the selection and implementation of spill response options are presented.
海洋溢油对海洋和沿海生态系统构成重大威胁。除了应对活动所产生的成本，依赖沿海资源的利益相关者也可能面临经济负担。溢油应急决策支持工具（OSR-DST）在溢油应急作业中发挥着重要作用。本文旨在深入了解溢油应急决策支持工具的研究现状，并确定未来的发展方向。具体而言，进行了系统综述，包括审查目前应用和新兴的溢油应急决策支持技术的优缺点。针对保护极地生态系统的环境问题，本文还讨论了在寒冷地区使用溢油应急决策支持工具的问题。基于对所获取信息的分析，提出了关于未来开发溢油应急决策支持工具以支持溢油应急选项选择和实施的工作建议。
