Mapping the Human Factors Behind Maritime Accidents Through Systematic Review
Human error drives most maritime accidents, yet the underlying causal factors remain stubbornly difficult to map systematically. A new systematic review of 65 eligible studies confirms that the Human Factors Analysis and Classification System has matured beyond simple accident classification into a genuinely integrated analytical tool. Researchers in China and Türkiye are leading this growth, combining HFACS with probabilistic and data-driven methods. For deeper context on how human factors shape risk models, see our related study *Quantifying human factors in vessel loss-of-control risk models*.
Long-Term Data Reveals Rising Ghost Gear Threat to Mediterranean Loggerheads
A 28-year dataset from the Balearic Sea reveals a troubling escalation: entanglement in abandoned fishing gear, particularly from fish aggregating devices (FADs), is rising sharply among loggerhead sea turtles. This is not a distant problem, it is a transboundary crisis. Our study applies Lagrangian backtracking simulations to trace ghost FADs across the Western Mediterranean, linking multiple nations to the threat. Understanding drives protection. For deeper insights into sea turtle health, see our related article on validated protein analysis for *Caretta caretta*.
Modeling a Green Shipping Corridor for Sustainable Trade Growth
A 2.2% annual traffic growth rate sounds modest until it meets a decarbonization curve that will not bend. This study models a green shipping corridor linking Shanghai, Jebel Ali, and Koper, and the results are sobering: even with 23 mitigation measures and roughly 86% alternative fuel adoption, net-zero by 2050 remains out of reach. The bunkering stage, not the voyage, is where the system lives or dies. That is the actionable insight. Corridors are not routes; they are integrated transport-energy systems.
