This paper analyzes the European Commission's (EC) climate policy package ‘Fit for 55′ and its potential impact on cargo ships calling at Swedish ports. Three scenarios are evaluated using the Swedish national freight transport model. The Main Scenario is based on the EC's proposal to i) include ships weighing at least 5,000 gross tons (GT) in the ...

This dissertation shows how businesses including shipping companies, labor recruitment agents, and landed elites—“agents of globalization”—decisively shaped global mobility in an era of nominally “free” and unregulated migration. From South Carolina and Argentina to Saskatchewan and Australia, businesses tried desperately to court immigrants, resor...

Rapid implementation of human mobility restrictions during the COVID-19 pandemic dramatically reduced maritime activity in early 2020. But where and when activity rebounded, or remained low, during the full extent of 2020 restrictions remains unclear. Using global high-resolution datasets, we reveal a surprising degree of complexity in maritime act...

Inland navigation is one of the most sustainable transport alternatives to help decarbonise the world economy. However, the likely impacts of intensifying inland navigation on freshwater ecosystems are difficult to predict. A global map of knowledge that considers both abiotic and biotic responses to increasing shipping traffic and developing infra...

Hjärt- och kärlsjukdomar är den vanligaste dödsorsaken globalt. Genom att mäta biomarkörer med anknytning till dessa sjukdomar, (exempelvis Apolipoprotein A1, Apolipoprotein B samt Lipoprotein A), kan det finnas möjligheter att rädda liv genom livsstilsförändringar eller medicinering. Att screena en befolkning kräver dock robusta analysmetoder samt...

Purpose: Recent decades have seen the emergence of environmental problems such as global warming, partly caused by maritime transport. To tackle environmental problems, the shipping industry has introduced regulations, and, in response, environmental analyses have been carried out. Studies have suggested the use of life cycle assessment (LCA) in th...

To analyse the future transition towards fossil-free fuels in the Swedish maritime transport sector, this study develops a scenario modelling tool to assess implications of policy instruments, such as the European Union Emissions Trading System and the FuelEU Maritime regulation. Using data for individual ships and their operational patterns, the m...

Global businesses are transforming towards capturing more value from services, a business model transition called servitization. Digital servitization can help create and maintain a competitive advantage, as well as offering opportunities to tackle major challenges related to environmental pressures and rapidly changing market conditions. This stud...

This thesis investigated shippingâs alternative fuel options and compared green hydrogen, green ammonia, blue hydrogen, blue ammonia, e-methanol, bio-methanol, biodiesel, and bio-methane with conventional heavy fuel oil. First, stakeholder engagement was completed to gather insight into what criteria should be included in the multi-criteria decis...
