Routing and the Environment

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  21 October 2009

Extract

One aspect of marine navigation which has particular application to the protection of the environment is the establishment of traffic separation schemes and other routing measures in coastal waters. Extensive pollution may be caused by marine casualties. The use of routing to reduce the risk of strandings and of collisions between ships or with offshore structures will be considered in this paper.
