Chronic undersampling of the marine environment, including both biological and physical components, has been and remains a major block to understanding how marine ecosystems function and how they respond to changes, whether natural or anthropogenic. Consequently, data-based models that accurately predict local variations in the abundance of plant and animal life in the sea are rare or do not ex...

Recent shipping amount in maritime transportation keeps growing, and efficient material handling operations at marine ports becomes important issue. In many cases, containers are used for transportation of cargos, and thus the growth of shipping amount leads to the growth of the number of containers. In a marine port, containers are shifted between seaborn and landside transportation at contain...

A summary of knowledge and recommendations for the conservation of marine birds and their habitats throughout the California Current Large Marine Ecosystem.

This paper applies a geospatial network optimization model to explore environmental, economic, and time-of-delivery tradeoffs associated with the application of marine vessels as substitutes for heavy-duty trucks operating in the Great Lakes region. The geospatial model integrates U.S. and Canadian highway, rail, and waterway networks to create an intermodal network and characterizes this netwo...
