Consequences of Maritime Critical Infrastructure Accidents: Environmental Impacts

Consequences of Maritime Critical Infrastructures Accidents: Environmental Impacts includes three models of the events generated by a critical infrastructure accident, the process of the environment threats, and the process of environment degradation. This model explores chemical releases in the world's oceans, with case studies form the Baltic Sea included. In addition to prediction, mitigation and consequence analysis, the model also assesses the cost analysis of losses associated with the consequences of chemical releases. As accidents at sea are also caused by other factors, including the influence of weather, these accidents are also included. The book provides full coverage of the theoretical background of the methods and procedures of critical infrastructure accident consequences modeling, identification, prediction and optimization and their practical applications to the forecasting and optimization of the environment losses caused by the chemical releases generated by an accident of a ship critical infrastructure network.
