- The meteorological impact of weather on ports across the globe
- Why not all weather forecasts are created equal
- The power of location-specific weather forecasts on ports
A study conducted by the National Center for Atmospheric Research with IH Cantabria illustrated that unless greenhouse gas emissions are decreased, by the year 2100, 90% of the ports included in the 2013 sample would be even more prone to weather risks.
From this number, 289 ports would be at a relatively higher risk to exposure. This can include overflooding of docks, on-loading & off-loading operations and rising temperatures.
It’s more imperative than ever for the maritime industry to have access to timely, reliable weather insights for effective ship arrival/departure schedules, cargo transfers, and labour and equipment planning.
