Shipping traffic through the Arctic Ocean: Spatial distribution, seasonal variation, and its dependence on the sea ice extent [PDF]
iScienceSummary: The reduction in sea ice cover with Arctic warming facilitates shipping through remarkably shorter shipping routes. Automatic identification system (AIS) is a powerful data source to monitor Arctic Ocean shipping.

Climatic Responses to Future Trans-Arctic Shipping. [PDF]
Geophys Res Lett, 2018 AbstractAs global temperatures increase, sea ice loss will increasingly enable commercial shipping traffic to cross the Arctic Ocean, where the ships' gas and particulate emissions may have strong regional effects. Here we investigate impacts of shipping emissions on Arctic climate using a fully coupled Earth system model (CESM 1.2.2) and a suite of ...

Changes in shipping navigability in the Canadian Arctic between 1972 and 2016 [PDF]
FACETS, 2021 There have been rapid recent reductions in sea ice age and extent in the Canadian Arctic, but little previous analysis of how this has impacted the navigability of Arctic shipping.

Short-lived climate forcers from current shipping and petroleum activities in the Arctic [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2012 Emissions of short-lived climate forcers (SLCF) in the Arctic region are expected to increase, notably from shipping and petroleum extraction. We here discuss changes in atmospheric SLCF concentrations and resulting radiative forcing (RF) from present ...
