New Developments in the Arctic: Protecting the Marine Environment from Increased Shipping
NEW DEVELOPMENTS IN THE ARCTIC: PROTECTING THE MARINE ENVIRONMENT FROM INCREASED SHIPPING Erik Franckx and Laura Boone1 Abstract It is generally accepted that the Arctic is wanning at a rapid pace. Studies have shown that with this warming trend, sea ice and glaciers are melting and thus sea levels are rising. However, the situation might be more severe than originally anticipated. The ice is retreat ing a lot more quickly than was projected, with an absolute low point in 2007. A second low point occurred in 2008 and September 2010 provided us with the third lowest sea ice extent in the satellite record. Maybe even more important than the decline in sea ice extent, is the fact that the ice volume is decreasing with it. The ice pack is becoming more and more vulnerable to melting due to the decline in the amount ofol.d, thick ice and it appears that jive-year or ol.der ice has nearly completely disappeared .from the Arctic. This Arctic melt opens up new possibilities far {trans) Arctic shipping. Of particular importance was key finding #6 of the Arctic Climate Impact Assessment (AC.IA) report, which stated that "Reduced sea ice is very likely to increase marine transport and access to resources·: Indeed, due to this wanning trend, the NorthU1est Passage, the Northern Sea Route and maybe even the Central Arctic Route in the future, are opening up. In the fall of 2008 the first commercial ship transported cargo .from the east through the Northwest Passage and in 2009 two German cargo vessels, the MV Beluga Fraternity and the MV Beluga Foresight were the first foreign flag ships to sail the entire Northern Sea Route. -

Shipping and Resources in the Arctic Ocean: a Hemispheric Perspective1
247 Shipping and Resources in the Arctic Ocean: A Hemispheric Perspective1 Willy Østreng2 With the melting of Arctic sea ice as a result of climate changes, there has been an intensification of interest, and use, of Arctic waters for shipping. This article seeks to do two things: first, define and compare the transport passages of the Arctic Ocean on the basis of their geographical features, natural conditions, political significance, and legal characteristics displaying their distinctions, interrelations and eventual overlaps focusing on the Northeast Passage, of which the Northern Sea Route is the main part; the Northwest Passage; and the Trans Polar Passage. And second, to discuss how Arctic passages connect or may connect to world markets through transport corridors in southern waters. The article concludes by examining the more likely prospects for Arctic shipping in the short, medium and long term. It is claimed that the most important contribution of geopolitics to the analysis of foreign policy stems from the pedagogic of the strategic atlas: how world images of states are conditioned by their own geographical location and horizon; how technological changes transform the strategic significance of an area; and how supply lines for energy and mineral resources tie regions together displaying their vulnerabilities as well as their interdependencies (Østerud 1996: 325). The geographical area addressed in this article is the space of the Arctic Ocean which can only be adequately understood if the strategic atlas for the region is further specified and supplemented. In terms of location the Arctic Ocean is situated in between three continents; it is assumed to be abundantly rich in oil and gas; and its sea ice regime is dwindling due to global warming. -

Methods for Planning and Control CONTROLLING the PROCESSES
Methods for Planning and Control CONTROLLING THE PROCESSES OF THE AUTOMOTIVE INDUSTRY IN A TRANSPARENT AND OPTIMAL WAY Founded by In the past decades the general conditions of the automotive industry have changed. Individual vehicle requests, new driving systems and constant innovations caused a continually growing variety of models. As a result, automotive manufacturers focus on their core competences and reduce their vertical integration of manufacturing. This leads to the development of global and often complex logistics networks. The goal of the project RAN is a transparent and effi cient control of these networks. © bremenports Project description (CRC) 637 “Autonomous Cooperating Logistic Projekt Partner Processes – A Paradigm Shift and its Limita- Funded by the Federal Ministry of Economics tions” at the University of Bremen.
