Transportation risk analysis framework for arctic waters
Arctic waters have historically been relativelyinaccessible for marine transport. Lately, climate change hasmade more of this region ice-free in the summer season. Thishas reduced the difficulty of marine transport in Arctic waters.Further, exploration and development of natural resources isincreasi...

Arctic waters have historically been relativelyinaccessible for marine transport. Lately, climate change hasmade more of this region ice-free in the summer season. Thishas reduced the difficulty of marine transport in Arctic waters.Further, exploration and development of natural resources isincreasing in Arctic regions, as is destinational shipping. Theunique risk factors of this region, such as extremely lowtemperature, ice conditions and drifting icebergs, continue topose threats to transportation. Potential impacts associated withmarine transportation accidents warrant contingency plans thatrecognize that preventative measures may fail. To planeffectively, a transportation accident risk assessment model forArctic waters is helpful. There is limited work on thedevelopment of such models. A new cause-consequences basedrisk assessment model is proposed here.
