Comparative Study of Different Alternative Fuel Options for Shipowners Based on Carbon Intensity Index Model Under the Background of Green Shipping Development

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
The International Maritime Organization (IMO)’s annual operational carbon intensity index (CII) rating requires that from 1 January 2023, all applicable ships meet both technical and operational energy efficiency requirements. In this paper, we conduct a

‘The Heart of the Matter’: Grandparent Childcare in Contemporary Chinese Families

Children &Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Grandparent childcare is an international phenomenon, especially within families with children under 3 years old. China is no exception, as shown by a number of quantitative studies. Less clear is our understanding of the actual childcare arrangements involved and how these are negotiated and sustained through the intergenerational ...

Global overview of progress in respecting the contributions of traditional knowledge in biodiversity governance

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Recognition and engagement of Indigenous Peoples and local communities (IP&LCs) and other traditional knowledge (TK) holders in formal biodiversity governance remain limited, despite their significant contribution to the conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity through their knowledge, innovations, practices, and land stewardship.

A practical, adaptive compliance management framework for improving marine protected area effectiveness

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Noncompliance regularly undermines the effectiveness of marine protected areas (MPAs) worldwide. The reasons for and drivers of noncompliance depend on the context (e.g., insufficient funding, capacity, neocolonialism, historical conflict), but the prevalent solution offered to curtail noncompliance tends to be more or better enforcement.

Ticking the box: Does a decision support framework for management planning improve protected area management effectiveness?

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Protected area (PA) management effectiveness assessment tools like the METT help conservation agencies demonstrate accountability but often oversimplify complex management realities, leading to METT indicator compliance rather than positive conservation outcomes. Applying a decision support framework like the Conservation Standards to 38 Cape Floristic

A Time-Delay Overlapping Modulation-Based Maritime High-Speed and High-Spectral-Efficiency Communication Technology

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
To simultaneously address dual demands on the spectral efficiency and the data transmission rate of maritime communications, in this paper, a novel maritime communication technology based on time-delay overlapping modulation (TDOM) is proposed.

Decadal Rapid Change in Energetic Carrying Capacity for Juvenile Chum Salmon in the Sanriku Coast

Fisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Adult returns to coastal rivers in Sanriku, located near the southernmost area of chum salmon distribution, have declined since 2010. Climate‐induced fluctuations in juvenile prey availability may affect growth and survival, which are linked to adult returns.

The power of a stewardship mind: Reorienting organizations around the duty to care to better address grand challenges

International Journal of Management Reviews, EarlyView.
Abstract The present article presents an integrative review related to stewardship in all the business and management disciplines, from its initial development in 1980 to the present. Specifically, we applied a latent Dirichlet allocation‐based topic modelling analysis to almost 1200 articles, seeking to creatively synthesize the concept of stewardship

Lifecycle Risk Assessment for Steel Cargo Vessel Sinkings: An Interpretive Structural Modeling and Fuzzy Bayesian Network Approach

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Steel cargo vessel sinking accidents (SCVSA) threaten maritime safety and disrupt global steel supply chains. This study integrates interpretive structural modeling (ISM) and fuzzy Bayesian networks (FBN) to evaluate SCVSA risks across the incident ...

Collaborative platooning and routing for mixed fleets of electric automated vehicles and conventional trucks

International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract The application of automated ground vehicles (AGVs) is well‐established in closed environments such as port terminals, while their operation in open areas remains challenging. In this work, we set out to overcome this limitation by introducing platooning as a transfer mode in heterogeneous vehicle networks.
