In the past, case study and questionnaire survey methodologies have often been used to analyze the causes of marine accidents. One of the disadvantages of these two methods is that they can only interpret the specific causes of one particular marine ...

Marine and Air Traffic Control [PDF]
Marine and air navigation can still learn from each other. Mariners are following aviation in adopting some routing and control but aviation could follow mariners in their refusal to accept routing and control unless it is cost effective. However it may be easier in the marine case to measure the cost and probability of a collision than it is in the ...

Bioinspired Stabilization of Fluorescent Au@SiO2 Tracers for Multimodal Biological Imaging
This study demonstrates a bioinspired stabilization strategy for fluorescent gold‐silica nanoparticles. Inspired by natural biosilica maturation, high‐temperature calcination transforms the silica shells, preventing dissolution in cell culture media and intracellular environments.

Stability Analysis of a Bulk Carrier under Damage Scenarios during the Loading of Polymetallic Nodules in the Clarion–Clipperton Zone [PDF]
A potential consequence of loading polymetallic nodules (PMNs) in a marine environment is liquefaction. During loading operations in the Clarion–Clipperton Zone (CCZ), the ship is exposed to cyclic rolling and pitching, which increases the risk of cargo ...

LONG-TERM MARINE TRAFFIC MONITORING FOR ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY IN THE AEGEAN SEA [PDF]
The Aegean Sea is characterized by an extremely high marine safety risk, mainly due to the significant increase of the traffic of tankers from and to the Black Sea that pass through narrow straits formed by the 1600 Greek islands.
