A survey on the role of deck officers with experience of ship operations in ice-covered waters - training aspects

A continued multidecadal decline in sea-ice extent has led to the opening up of the polar regions to emerging maritime opportunities. In spite of this decline, extreme variability in ice, temperature and weather conditions remains a significant navigational challenge to mariners. Thus, the emerging...

Thus, the emerging opportunities for increased maritime operations in the polar regions present significant safety and environmental risks.
