Beschreibung
<p>This book focuses on the interaction between shipping and the natural environment and how shipping can strive to become more sustainable.&nbsp;Readers are guided in marine environmental awareness, environmental regulations and abatement technologies to assist in decisions on strategy, policy and investments.</p><p>You will get familiar with possible paths to improve environmental performance and, in the long term, to a sustainable shipping sector, based on&nbsp;an understanding of the sources and mechanisms of common impacts. You will also gain knowledge on emissions and discharges from ships, prevention measures, environmental regulations, and methods and tools for environmental assessment. In addition,&nbsp;the book includes a chapter on the background to&nbsp;regulating pollution from ships.</p><p>It is intended as a source of information for professionals connected to maritime activities as well as policy makers and interested public. It is also intended as a textbook in higher education academic programmes.</p>

Autorenportrait
Selma Brynolf/Magda Wilewska-Bien/Karin Andersson et al
Karin Andersson, Professor, PhD is professor in Maritime Environment at the department of Shipping and Marine Technology, Chalmers University of Technol-ogy since 2009. Her scientific background is in Chemical Engineering (MSc, KTH 1975), Nuclear Chemistry (PhD, Chalmers 1983) and archaeology. After seven years as a consultant and researcher in environmental systems analysis, she was one of the founders of the research group for Environmental Systems Analysis at Chalmers in 1990. This group has been developing masters courses in environ-ment/sustainable development and was pioneer in research on Life Cycle Assess-ment (LCA) in Sweden. In the mid 1990ies a national competence centre, CPM (now Swedish Life Cycle Center) with participation of more than 10 large Swedish companies was started with the group as host. Karin was also a vice president at Chalmers 2004-2007. Present research interests focuses on decrease of environmental impact and resource use by the technical systems in shipping.
Selma Brynolf, PhD is a researcher at the Department of Shipping and Marine Technology and the Department of Energy and Environment at Chalmers Univer-sity of Technology conducting research about the global energy system with focus on shipping and marine fuels. She received her Master of Science in Industrial Ecol-ogy in 2009. After her master of science she started Ph.D. at the Department of Shipping and Marine Technology at Chalmers University of Technology. The re-searched involved environmental assessment of present and potential future marine fuels and she earned her Ph.D. degree in 2014. She has published papers within the area of marine fuels, life cycle assessment and global energy system modelling.
J. Fredrik Lindgren, PhD is a researcher at the Department of Shipping and Ma-rine Technology at Chalmers University of Technology. He studied marine biology at the Department of Marine Ecology, University of Gothenburg and received his Master of Science degree in 2003, doing work related to the settlement of barnacle larvas and the development of non-toxic antifouling paints. After his master of sci-ence he continued to work in this area, before starting his doctoral studies. There he studied ecotoxicological effects of small but frequent oil spills and factors that can influence the effects of the spills, earning his Ph.D. degree in 2015. He has published papers within the areas of marine biofouling, risk assessment, and ecotoxicology of oil.
Magda Wilewska-Bien, Lic. Tech. is a PhD student at the Department of Shipping and Marine Technology at Chalmers University of Technology. She received Lic. Tech. degree in Environmental Inorganic Chemistry in 2004 and Master of Science degree studying programme Applied Environmental Measurement Techniques. She maintains a professional interest in environmental science and in particular management of wastes.

Informationen zu E-Books

„E-Book“ steht für digitales Buch. Um diese Art von Büchern lesen zu können, wird entweder eine spezielle Software für Computer, Tablets und Smartphones oder ein E-Book Reader benötigt. Da es verschiedene (Datei-)Formate für E-Books gibt, gilt es dabei einiges zu beachten.

Von uns werden digitale Bücher hauptsächlich in zwei Formaten ausgeliefert: EPUB und PDF. Je nach Verlag und Titel kann zu dem Format eine Form vom Kopierschutz (DRM=Digital Rights Management) gehören. Sie können Format und Form des DRM der Detailansicht des Titels entnehmen. 

- Bei E-Books ohne DRM (DRM: Nicht vorhanden) müssen Sie lediglich sicherstellen, dass Ihr E-Book Reader, Software oder App das Format (EPUB oder PDF) öffnen kann.
- Der Kopierschutz per Digitalem Wasserzeichen (DRM: Digitales Wasserzeichen) speichert Daten zum Download des Buches direkt in der Datei, die ggf. gerichtlich ausgelesen werden können. Genau wie E-Books ohne DRM können diese Titel ohne Beschränkung kopiert und auf verschiedenen Geräten gespeichert werden, sind allerdings rückverfolgbar.
- Wenn ein Format mit "hartem" Kopierschutz gekoppelt ist (DRM: Adobe DRM), besteht zusätzlich die Notwendigkeit, dass Sie einen kostenlosen Adobe® Account besitzen (genannt Adobe® ID). Nach dem Kauf eines solchen Titels erhalten Sie per Download zunächst eine Übertragungsdatei (URLlink.acsm). Stellen Sie sicher, dass in Ihrer Software (z.B. Adobe® Digital Editions), Ihrer App oder in ihrem Reader die zuvor erwähnte Adobe ID (Ihre E-Mail-Adresse und Ihr Passwort) hinterlegt sind.
Beim ersten Öffnen der Übertragungsdatei im E-Book-Programm oder auf dem Reader wird das Buch untrennbar mit der Adobe ID verknüpft, mit der die Software / das Gerät angemeldet ist.
!! Sollte zu diesem Zeitpunkt keine ID angelegt sein, kann das E-Book nur auf diesem Gerät (Reader oder Computer) gelesen werden und nirgendwo sonst !!
Achten Sie bei der Übertragung von E-Books darauf, dass die selbe Adobe® ID benutzt wird, wie zum ersten Öffnen.

Da E-Books nur für eine begrenzte Zeit – in der Regel 6 Monate – herunterladbar sind, sollten Sie stets eine Sicherheitskopie auf einem Dauerspeicher (Festplatte, USB-Stick oder CD) vorsehen. Auch ist die Menge der Downloads häufig auf maximal 5 begrenzt.
Die Rückgabe von digitalen Inhalten ist technisch bedingt nicht möglich.
