It investigates the lack of sufficient ratifications of the Convention from both a legal and an economic perspective. The first part of the study focuses on the history of the Convention's entry-into-force provision and the rationale behind it. Due to the fact that this provision provides a considerable additional obstacle to the Convention's becoming legally binding, in the second part the focus of the work shifts to unilateral action in this field. An overview of the legal environment of European ship recycling legislation is followed by an analysis and evaluation of a number of proposals by the European Commission attempting to tackle the problems of current ship recycling procedures. With a particular emphasis on (planned) European measures in this regard, the analysis' overall message is one of cautious optimism.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52126913691921,"sku":"NLS9783642355967","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9783642355967.jpg?v=1757481188"},{"product_id":"liability-of-classification-societies-book-nicolai-i-lagoni-9783540729150","title":"The Liability of Classification Societies","description":"Because the liability of ship owners is limited, classification societies have been considered as exempt from liability.

The comparative method serves to illustrate two widely differing methods of dealing with, first, the exclusion of certain deck cargo from the scope of the Hague-Visby Rules and, second, where not excluded, the Rules failure to include a special deck cargo liability regime. Various solutions similar to the English or Nordic approach, or a combination of the two, have also been adopted in a large number of other jurisdictions. Taking into consideration the massive quantities of cargo that are carried on deck today, the subject is more topical than ever.  The complexity of the problem stems from the way in which the deck has, over the years, gradually become a common place to stow cargo. When the Hague Rules were introduced in 1924, deck stowage was an absolute exception due to the great risks involved. As such, the topic must first be looked at in the context of the shipping realities in which the Hague Rules were drafted and then in terms of today’s shipping realities. The comparative analysis leading up to the author’s conclusions and general remarks for future legislation consists of two parts, the first dealing with the situations in which the carrier is permitted to stow cargo on deck, and the second with the carrier’s liability for deck cargo where he has stowed cargo on deck with, or as the case may be, without such permission.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52401756995857,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52401757651217,"sku":"NLS9783662468500","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9783662468500.jpg?v=1758755727"},{"product_id":"joint-development-of-hydrocarbon-deposits-in-the-law-of-the-sea-book-vasco-becker-weinberg-9783662435694","title":"Joint Development of Hydrocarbon Deposits in the Law of the Sea","description":"This book examines the concept and purpose of joint development agreements of offshore hydrocarbon deposits from the perspective of public international law and the law of the sea, taking into consideration and extensively reviewing State practice concerning seabed activities in disputed maritime areas and when hydrocarbon deposits extend across maritime boundaries.

Melt ponds contribute to the ice-albedo feedback as they reduce the surface albedo of sea ice, and hence accelerate the decay of Arctic sea ice. To quantify the melting of the entire Arctic sea ice, satellite based observations are necessary. Due to different spectral properties of snow, ice, and water, theoretically, multi-spectral optical sensors are necessary for the analysis of these distinct surface types. This study demonstrates the potential of optical sensors to detect melt ponds on Arctic sea ice. For the first time, an Arctic-wide, multi-annual melt pond data set for the years 2000-2011 has been created and analyzed.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52456376860945,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52456377483537,"sku":"NLS9783642370328","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9783642370328.jpg?v=1759377140"},{"product_id":"jurisdiction-of-the-coastal-state-over-foreign-merchant-ships-in-internal-waters-book-haijiang-yang-9783540331919","title":"Jurisdiction of the Coastal State over Foreign Merchant Ships in Internal Waters and the Territorial Sea","description":"Dr Yang's book deals with the port and coastal State's jurisdiction over foreign merchant ships as well as with the rights and duties of these ships in the internal waters and in the territorial sea. The international law is rather different in both situations. Despite the fact that it faces a number of issues such as, for example, a contested right of access to ports or conditions for port access requirements, the law of foreign merchant ships in internal waters has never been codified. On the other hand, already the League of Nations considered the law of the territorial sea as appropriate for codification in the 1930s. And the Geneva Convention on the Territorial Sea and the Contiguous Zone of 1958 was indeed a codification of most rules of international law on the territorial sea known at that time. The remaining issue of the breadth of the territorial sea was finally solved during the Third United Nations Conference on the Law of the Sea: art. 3 of the UN Conven- tion on the Law of the Sea of 1982 set it at a limit not exceeding 12 nautical miles. In addition, the right of innocent passage of foreign ships through the territorial sea is regulated in the 1982 Convention in greater detail than ever before, whilst the new regime on the prevention of marine pollution provided in Part XI of the Convention has also considerable impact on this right.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52479824167185,"sku":"NLS9783540331919","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52761648333073,"sku":"NIN9783540331919","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9783540331919.jpg?v=1759849291"},{"product_id":"marine-resource-conservation-and-poverty-reduction-strategies-in-tanzania-book-jennifer-k-sesabo-9783540699415","title":"Marine Resource Conservation and Poverty Reduction Strategies in Tanzania","description":"The Tanzanian coastal areas are socially, nutritionally, economically and environmentally important, yet they are vulnerable to both over-exploitation and degradation of their habitats.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52480941261073,"sku":"NLS9783540699415","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52761668419857,"sku":"NIN9783540699415","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9783540699415.jpg?v=1759850983"},{"product_id":"pollution-of-the-sea-prevention-and-compensation-book-ulrich-magnus-9783540733959","title":"Pollution of the Sea - Prevention and Compensation","description":"The International Max Planck Research School for Maritime Affairs hosted a global conference addressing marine pollution.

Furthermore, the role of science in advising decision-makers is a sensitive issue, which deserves scrutiny and is similar in many regimes. Finally, the complex problem of fragmentation of international law is acute in various fields of environmental law, as in all rapidly developing areas of international regulations.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52606077501713,"sku":"NLS9783319237015","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9783319237015.jpg?v=1761260164"},{"product_id":"on-the-effect-of-offshore-wind-farms-on-the-atmosphere-and-ocean-dynamics-book-elke-ludewig-9783319086408","title":"On the Effect of Offshore Wind Farms on the Atmosphere and Ocean Dynamics","description":"Renewable energy resources now play an essential role in the energy supply debate, and especially a new interest in wind energy has resulted in the intensified construction of wind farms. Thanks to the growing demand for renewable energy, offshore wind farms (OWFs) are increasingly gaining in popularity, since yields over sea are greater and more reliable than over land. Against this background it is becoming particularly urgent to determine whether and if so to what extent such OWF expansion affects our oceans and local climates. OWFs produce a downstream wind speed reduction, the so-called wind-wake effect, which impacts atmospheric boundary layers, alters local wind characteristics and in turn affects ocean dynamics. This book will help readers to understand in detail these OWF-induced changes in the atmosphere and ocean by analyzing model simulations and measurements. In this context, OWF-induced upwelling and downwelling are key aspects.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52650413588753,"sku":"NLS9783319086408","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9783319086408.jpg?v=1762127908"},{"product_id":"der-zugang-zu-nothafen-und-sonstigen-notliegeplatzen-fur-schiffe-in-seenot-book-inken-gadow-stephani-9783540305187","title":"Der Zugang zu Nothäfen und sonstigen Notliegeplätzen für Schiffe in Seenot","description":"In jüngerer Vergangenheit wurde in Seenot geratenen Schiffen häufig der Zugang zu Häfen verwehrt.

Der Autor analysiert das internationale Haftungs- und Entschädigungssystem sowie die dazu vorhandene Rechtsprechung und setzt sich hiermit kritisch auseinander. Anschließend wird rechtsvergleichend das alternative Modell des US-Oil Pollution Acts von 1990 und die aktuelle Diskussion auf europäischer und internationaler Ebene betrachtet. Nach ausführlichen Überlegungen zur Verbesserung des Systems, mündet die Untersuchung in konkreten Änderungsvorschlägen, die insbesondere die Erweiterung des Kreises der haftenden Personen, eine signifikante Erhöhung der Haftungs- und Entschädigungssummen und die Ausweitung des Ersatzes für Umweltschäden fordern.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52661098479889,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52661099528465,"sku":"NLS9783540472124","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9783540472124.jpg?v=1762266693"},{"product_id":"hamburg-lectures-on-maritime-affairs-2007-and-2008-book-rdiger-wolfrum-9783642040634","title":"The Hamburg Lectures on Maritime Affairs 2007 And 2008","description":"In 2007, The International Max Planck Research School for Maritime Affairs and the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea established an annual lecture series to address recent developments in maritime affairs.

However, these remained outside the spotlight of the international community until the turn of this century when the negative effects that fisheries subsidies have on international trade, the environment and sustainable development became increasingly clear. As a result the Doha Round Negotiations set the parameters for an effective fisheries subsidies regime. WTO Members thus embarked in intensive negotiations with the collaboration of various international organizations. These negotiations culminated with publication of the legal text of the Chairman of the Negotiating Group on Rules in 2007 which reflects to a large extent the mandates of the Ministerial Conferences and reconciles the diverse interests of the negotiators. The EU as a major WTO Member and with its own Common Fisheries Policy which has been in effect for a number of years can serve as the basis for comparison and improvement of the proposed regulations.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52662405464337,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52662406414609,"sku":"NLS9783642156922","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9783642156922.jpg?v=1762269427"},{"product_id":"asylsuchende-und-migranten-auf-see-book-sicco-rah-9783540929307","title":"Asylsuchende und Migranten auf See","description":"Migrationsbewegungen auf dem Seeweg stellen die von der Einwanderung betroffenen Küstenstaaten und die zur Seenotrettung verpflichtete Handelsschifffahrt vor große Schwierigkeiten.

If semivolatile, they cycle in different environmental compartments and follow complex transport pathways. The ocean is believed to play a key role in the cycling by accumulating and storing the contaminant and providing a transport medium. But substance fate in the marine environment is not fully understood yet. Here, the global multicompartment chemistry-transport model MPI-MCTM is used to study the fate of organic pollutants in the marine and total environment. For the first time historical emission data are used in spatially-resolved long-term simulations of an insecticide, DDT, and an industrial chemical, perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA). The model results give new insights into the cycling of these substances as different spatial and process resolutions were tested. E.g. for DDT the model results show saturation and reversal of air-sea exchange, which was not indicated by any other study before.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52664393761041,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52664394744081,"sku":"NLS9783642050084","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9783642050084.jpg?v=1762274507"},{"product_id":"third-party-liability-of-classification-societies-book-jrgen-basedow-9783540261841","title":"Third-Party Liability of Classification Societies","description":"Classification societies are charged with the technical supervision of maritime shipping to enhance the safety of life and property at sea by securing high te- nical standards of design, manufacture, construction and maintenance of seagoing vessels. Each and every shipping catastrophe caused by a technical defect reminds the maritime world of the central importance of the vessel's proper technical supervision. Correspondingly, the liability of classification societies has become a particularly discussed issue over the past years. Their contractual liability is usually limited by general terms and conditions incorporated in the classification rules and cases brought by typical contracting partners of classification societies, such as ship owners and ship yards, are not an issue in the current debate. H- ever, one can note a substantial worldwide increase of actions brought by parties who are not in privity with classification societies. This study focuses on third-party liability of classification societies. It ori- nates in an expert opinion on selected issues relating to third-party liability which the authors compiled for the German classification society Germanischer Lloyd AG. Driven by the highly interesting legal issues and unexplored shores in this area of law, we continued our research and are able to present a relatively c- prehensive overview on the law on third-party liability of classification societies. Given the origins of our work, the discussion of limitations of liability clauses is based on the standard terms and conditions of the Germanischer Lloyd, version 2005.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52667814805777,"sku":"NLS9783540261841","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9783540261841.jpg?v=1762283483"},{"product_id":"large-spectrum-of-free-oscillations-of-the-world-ocean-including-the-full-ocean-book-malte-mller-9783540855750","title":"A Large Spectrum of Free Oscillations of the World Ocean Including the Full Ocean Loading and Self-attraction Effects","description":"ThisbookdependsonadissertationpreparedattheDepartementofGeosciencesat theUniversityHamburg.

The main focus of the model is on quantifying the distribution of POPs and their aquatic pathways. This is the first time that a spatially-resolved, measurement-based ocean transport model has been used to study POP-like substances, at least on the regional scale. The model was applied for the southern North Sea and tested by studying the behaviour of g-HCH, a-HCH and PCB 153 in sea water.

The most prominent effect of global climate change in the region is the melting sea ice in the Arctic Ocean, which enables a multitude of ocean uses to be initiated and extended, such as shipping, fishing and oil and gas extraction. Unlike in the Antarctic, there is currently no single comprehensive legal regime for governance of the Arctic. Instead, the region is regulated by a patchwork of international treaties, above all the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS), various regional and sub-regional agreements, national laws and soft-law agreements. This treatise provides an evaluation of the governance regime that regulates the use of the Arctic marine environment and its readiness to protect these fragile ecosystems in light of the consequences of climate change.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52681832562961,"sku":"NLS9783319044705","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9783319044705.jpg?v=1762316642"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/collections\/hamburg-studies-on-maritime-affairs-book-series.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
