Why commercial ships carry ballast water on board, and how it affects the marine environment.
Clear Seas, MEOPAR and exactEarth hosted an interactive workshop on how advances in maritime traffic monitoring and modelling can directly improve marine safety best practices, emergency response and cross-jurisdictional collaboration across the Pacific Northwest on April 11 and 12, 2016 in Vancouver, BC.

Leaders in the global shipping industry are being called upon to take action to reduce their GHG emissions. What can be done?
Building on its previous work on shipping risks, Clear Seas examined the rates of vessels involved in maritime incidents and accidents in Canada, based on the type of ship and occurrence and the volume of marine traffic in each region.

This research has examined spill response policies and practices in seven ports in five countries, which has provided a range of national policies and port conditions and practices against which to consider Canadian policies and practices.
