As the Arctic becomes a place of commerce and industry, operating safely and ecologically in the region is growing in importance. Vessels traveling in ice-covered waters must constantly maintain awareness of conditions in the immediate area as well as large-scale regional ice and weather conditions...

As the Arctic becomes a place of commerce and industry, operating safely and ecologically in the region is growing in importance.
