Port terminals, as the starting and ending points of the technological process in the transport of goods, are also logistic centers for the provision of services of loading/unloading and storage of goods. Improving the process of transporting goods and achieving competitiveness is not possible without quality port service and customer satisfaction with the service provided, and reduction of traffic congestion and environmental pollution within the guards in which the ports are positioned. This scientific research aimed to analyze, using scientific methodology, the factors influencing the assessment of port service quality and intermodality in the Port of Rijeka and to develop a model for port service quality assessment by implementing fuzzy logic. The model was tested by simulation based on the evaluation of the criteria of influential parameters with inaccurate and indeterminate input data. The test results provide an assessment of the quality provided by port service and intermodality. The results of the research will be used to improve the transport service planning process to achieve greater competitiveness for the port.

This paper reflects upon the concept of social innovation and its role in islands’ energy transition. As isolated energy systems, islands typically depend on energy imports from the mainland and mostly use fossil fuels for electricity, heating, and transport, which are significant sources of carbon emissions. At the same time, islands have an abundance of locally available renewable energy sources (RES) at their disposal, which makes them ideal test-beds for energy transition, or the technology-based switch of the energy system, from fossil-based to renewable energy. However, new RES technologies must be incorporated into society and, thus, to enable successful decarbonisation, technological innovations must be coupled with social innovations. Different authors stress that energy transitions are not strictly technical but socio-technical since they are also comprised of policies, politics and other artefacts, not just technological. Nevertheless, the role of social innovation in local energy transitions is still under-studied, and this paper aimed to contribute to this lack of literature, focusing on the local energy transitions of islands. By combining theoretical and empirical research, this paper aims to explore the role of social innovation in energy transition and analyse whether social innovation can be considered a success factor in the energy transition process of the case-study island, the small Croatian island of Unije.

Shipping containers are known as a crucial equipment for global trade. Most of their lifespan containers are spending empty, being in process of repositioning or sitting in a yard. Increasing trade imbalances globally set up empty container logistics as one of the main concerns in container shipping industry. In line with that issue, this paper will analyse the roots of empty container imbalance and port congestion, emphasizing the importance of proper empty container management and challanges which appear along the way. Results of the research show that there is room for improvement while dealing with management of empty containers which primarly implies a cognition of the imbalance problem and long-term predictions as well as mutual cooperation of all parties involved. Furthermore, new solutions and higher level of digitalization will be required to succesully and efficiently handle today’s challanging situations. Reducing empty container transport to a minimum is the key point, where foldable containers and container interchange between carriers can greatly contribute. Efficiency of empty container management must be reflected in increased environmental sustainability throughout the shipping process.

In this study, the environmental footprint within a designated area is determined by an inventory of air pollutants (including toxic and greenhouse gases) emissions generated. The designated area of concern is the port of Dubrovnik, a well-known cruise ship destination, where a major source of pollutant emissions is the diesel engines of the ships operating in the port. This research was undertaken for the port of Dubrovnik in connection with the development of the national strategy and the need for determining the inventory of air pollutants. It was conducted for the last pre – COVID- 19 year, 2019. In this paper, after a short introduction, the basic data of the port of Dubrovnik and the marine traffic (predominantly cruisers) in 2019 are provided, obtained from publicly available data. Next, the emission estimate methodology based on a bottom-up approach is described. The inventory analysis was undertaken from the port boundary to the PWD (pier/wharf/dock) and back. The basic equations for evaluation during cruising, maneuvering, and hoteling are given along with the corresponding data. The aggregated results are presented in the form of tables and column charts. These results show that the generation of CO2 highly dominates. Regarding the pollution analyzed NOx dominates. The results of this study could be of interest for later studies on environmental pollution in the region of Dubrovnik-Neretva County and the Croatian coast.

The hazards that particularly affect local coastal communities require education that is conducive to the development within planetary boundaries. The paper analyses the features of education for resilience and sustainability based on good practice and the principles stipulated in strategic documents on sustainable development issued by international organizations and professional associations. In developing the curricula for strengthening resilience, focus should be placed on deeper learning about local knowledge, on stimulating local sustainability, systems thinking, integrating teaching about the environment and responsible citizenship into all school subjects. To achieve the objectives proposed it is necessary to enhance whole-institution approach and bridge the divide between the subjects in humanities and STEM areas by providing courses which afford insights into connections between various disciplines required for perceiving local and global issues and the solutions thereto, and to implement citizen science. Resilience thinking should be embedded in planning and strategic environmental assessment procedures for a wide range of themes and activities affecting coastal area environment and its communities.

As an archipelagic country, Indonesia has a concentrated deposit of salt in Java and Madura Island. Furthermore, the total demand for the mineral in 2017, 2018, and 2019 were 3.9, 4, and 4.2 million tons, respectively. This study was carried out in 4 stages, namely identification of raw materials, crystallization, mechanical, and re-crystallization. The salt crystallization and purification process is beneficial to the aquaculture, fishery, and health sectors. The results showed that the raw materials obtained from the coastal areas of East Java and Bali Island have an average NaCl interval estimation range of 80.31% to 92.37%, which indicates that they are suitable for salt production. The product obtained from the processes have the potential to initiate diversification of business development in the country with an estimation range of 95.38% to 97.25%.

The enhancement of world maritime shipping leads to increasing of the time required for transit passage and impossibility of old locks in Panama Canal to serve the newest vessel’s generation. Many states in east and south-eastern part of the country, as Florida, Georgia, Virginia and South Carolina, are becoming attractive for business. They have made various investments and improvements in regional transport infrastructure to dominate over freight traffic in the region, such as dredging of port entrances and port basins, expansion of container terminals, and improving inland transport connections to the port. The goal of this article is to study how the design and construction of new set of locks on the Panama Canal affects to the global trade and further to the multimodal chains, transport infrastructure and ports along the East American Coast.

Compliance with modern environmental norms and regulations is an increasingly important requirement in the shipbuilding process of ship design and construction. Related to the ship production process, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), nitric oxides and particulate matter are the main emissions of harmful gases in the shipyard. This paper analyzes air emissions from the ship production process in a shipyard. Air emissions are quantified from either in-situ measurements from emission sources, or by materials that are used in the shipbuilding process, and the acquired data from those measurements is calculated as yearly emissions. Emission quantities of VOCs, nitric oxides, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and particulates are analyzed regarding possible reduction techniques considering efficiency and investment costs for using these methods. In conclusion, the best available and feasible emission reduction methods are suggested, and a suggestion for achieving the goal of a net zero emission shipyard.

During the last decades, the international practice has indicated that maritime disputes among coastal states have erupted as a result of direct infringements of maritime jurisdiction and rights of one coastal state towards another. These maritime disputes involve many aggravated issues and problems reflecting often conflicts of international nature which have to be tackled and given an appropriate resolution to avoid a possible escalation of a maritime conflict or crisis. The most problematic and dangerous cases related to these maritime conflicts are the maritime zones’ delimitation among coastal states which as their mechanism of sovereignty may utilize their armed forces to resolve the relevant disputes, considered very sensitive and paramount matters of national interests. The maritime dispute between Albania and Great Britain in the Corfu Channel incident is considered an aggravated interstate conflict where the armed forces of both coastal states confronted each other with lethal and extreme use of force. To avoid such a dangerous confrontation of maritime interests which can have dire consequences for international or regional peace and stability, the international organization such as the United Nations has adopted legal instruments for the resolution of maritime disputes through peaceful mechanisms and legal approaches such as international tribunals, international maritime conventions as well as diplomatic channels and political negotiations. It is the main objective of this article to examine these legal approaches and instruments to identify the legislative advantages and legal issues which may influence possible future maritime disputes among states.

The aim of this paper is to evaluate development partnership scenarios of the seaports in the Republic of Croatia using the Multi-Actor Multi-Criteria Analysis (MAMCA). Previous author’s research indicated a number of effects and criteria that PPPs need to achieve in order to ensure sustainable port development. However, implementation of partnership models in seaports in the Republic of Croatia has not reached its full potential although there has been significant progress over the last ten years. For that reason, the evaluation of the partnership models in Croatian seaports is a poorly researched issue. The author has defined three models of port development according to the degree of private investors’ involvement in Croatian ports (status quo, minimal participation and maximal participation of private sector). The author uses MAMCA as a tool to evaluate the PPP model, using relevant criteria for the evaluation of public-private partnerships (economical-financial, organizational, technical-technological, social criteria and the criteria aiming at harmonization with the policies of the European Union), from relevant stakeholders’ point of view (public interest, private interest and the interest of the wider community). The research results show that the best-evaluated model is maximal participation of private sector. It has positive influence on port development from economic and technological side, it directly contributes to different stakeholder’s interests, and in the long term, it contributes to the local community development.
