National Policy Coherence Counts for Reducing Inequality in Global Climate and Development Agendas

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT International institutions promote policy coherence as crucial to the effective and fair implementation of global sustainability agendas, though the evidence for its benefits is slim. We present here the first systematic cross‐country dataset on the consequences of national government efforts to promote policy coherence for vulnerable groups ...

A Comparative Assessment of Collision Risk of Manned and Unmanned Vessels

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
It is expected that the prototypes of unmanned merchant ships will be deployed in the next few years. However, there is no specific research on whether the introduction of unmanned ships will reduce the risk of ship collision accidents in which ...

Prediction of ship collision risk based on CART

IET Intelligent Transport Systems, 2018
The primary function of a collision risk index is to determine the time when ships take action to avoid a collision. In this study, based on the complex non‐linear relationship between the collision risk degree and its influencing factors, classification and regression trees (CARTs) are applied to construct a prediction model for ship collision risk ...

An Improved Danger Sector Model for Identifying the Collision Risk of Encountering Ships

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
In order to avoid collision, ships usually take collision avoidance manoeuvres, such as course alteration. However, the effect of such a manoeuvre is influenced by ship manoeuvrability.

Field evaluations of thermal optics and tracking tunnels for small mammal surveys at airports and grass dominated habitats

Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
Small mammal survey tools are needed at airports to help inform aircraft strike‐risk management. We evaluated thermal optics and tracking tunnels as small mammal survey tools. We conclude that thermal optics would not be a viable survey tool for mouse‐sized mammals (19‐41 g) at airfields and other thick grass habitats unless grass height was maintained

Model and Application of Risk Degree for Vessel-Bridge Collision Based on Theory of Ship Collision Avoidance [PDF]

, 2014
In recent years, there are many ship-bridge collision accidents in the world, which caused huge casualties and property losses. The main risk not only come from itself, but also come from the vessel in the water.

Sino‐Mexican Encounters Before the ‘Diplomatic Opening’: Exhibition Diplomacy and Grassroots Friendship in the 1960s

History, EarlyView.
Abstract During the 1960s, Mexico's Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI) embraced Chinese overtures for a commercial opening as consistent with its anti‐imperialist posture, thereby foreshadowing the diplomatic opening to China in 1972. Yet this professed ideological pluralism was eclipsed by an underlying allegiance to the United States' anti ...

Sustainable Development Goals Applied to the Maritime Transportation Sector: Setting Sail for the Future

Natural Resources Forum, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development aims to eradicate poverty, protect the environment, and promote prosperity through 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Achieving these goals requires a multi‐sectoral approach. Maritime transportation, vital to the global economy, significantly contributes to several SDGs and plays a strategic ...
