InShipTRASE, both near-term and long-term solutions to
shipping emission reduction and control mechanisms will
be analysed. The potential environmental impacts on the
lower atmosphere and upper ocean include those
pollutant emissions from ship smokestacks and liquid
discharge, as well as increased methane-induced
greenhouse warming. The simulations are performed
using atmospheric and ocean models for the baltic (ECA)
and Mediterranean sea(non-ECA) region to assess
pollutants' impact and provide perspective to the region's
economic and shipping regulatory mechanism.
