Description

Maritime transport is the transport of people or goods by water.

It is the backbone of world trade and globalization.

Twenty-four hours a day and all year round, ships carry cargoes to all corners of the globe.

Maritime Transport focuses on the operational side of this important industry, covering many topics such as sea traffic currents, passenger transport, short sea shipping and dangerous cargoes.

Parts one and two of Maritime Transport present the concepts, theory and background information, then part three presents more complex and deeper issues such as the maritime transportation of the future.

It covers topics such as intelligent shipping, data exchange at sea and maritime security.

In addition, the book includes fascinating case studies and examples, such as maritime transport in the Baltic sea, ship strategies in Norway and Greece and the benefits of slow steaming.

At the end of each chapter there are questions that will help students to gain a deeper understanding of the many topics covered.
