Environmental impact assessment of vessel carbon emissions based on AIS data and fuzzy logic theory in port waters
Vessel carbon emissions represent a critical, growing source of pollution impacting port city environmental quality. This study presents a validated, hierarchical fuzzy logic model leveraging Automatic Identification System (AIS) data to assess the environmental impact of these emissions within port waters. Using Qingdao Port as a case study, our analysis identifies key areas and vessel types—including oil tankers and container vessels—contributing to the highest impacts, particularly during harbor operations and port entry/exit.
