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 ...

Note on fuel consumption in ocean container shipping: Bounds on fuel usage
Maritime Transport ResearchThis paper contributes to the literature by deriving upper and lower bounds on the fuel consumption in container shipping. The bounds are derived from sailing distances, port times, and the possible arrival times at ports/ the berth windows negotiated between the ocean carrier and the port operators.

From Proxies to System State: Defining Sustainability Management Against Symbolic Progress
Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Sustainability in management is often measured through scores, ratings, and disclosure narratives that can reward symbolic progress while leaving underlying social‐ecological conditions unchanged. This perspective paper offers a definition of Sustainability Management as how organizations plan, organize, lead, and control (four management ...

Utilising real-time ship data to save fuel consumption and reduce carbon emission [PDF]
Maritime shipping is estimated to represent around 3% of greenhouse gas (GHG) emission worldwide. Therefore, maritime regulatory bodies have incentivised shipping to operate more efficiently, in order to reduce the CO2 budget.

Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This article investigates the characterization of cascading phenomena within sociotechnical systems through a systematic review and the development of a conceptual modelling framework. Cascading phenomena, often described using terms such as ripple effect, domino effect, cascading failure, risk propagation and cascading effect, capture the far‐
