Abstract
⺠A comparison of various ocean models used for particle trajectories is given. ⺠Results from real-time/operational and hindcast/climate models are presented. ⺠Trajectory paths for the Northeast Pacific, simulating float debris and derelict fishing gear, are computed from these models. ⺠Examples show how near-surface floating debris accumulated in the Northeastern Pacific.
