| source_abstract | Shipping data (Halpern et al., 2008) provide an estimate of the occurrence of ships at a particular location, and therefore an estimate of the amount of pollution they produce (via fuel leaks, oil discharge, waste disposal, etc.), under the assumption that traveling ships primarily affect their immediate waters. The dispersal of port-derived pollution was modeled as a diffusive plume based on data of transport of goods (thousand tonnes) and passengers (thousand passengers). Pressures generated by oil spills and other pollution releases are represented as a density layer based on data registered by the REMPEC, and also the oil spills map generated by Cinirella et al, 2012 (based on JRC 2009 data). |
