Examining the influence of port ship activities on pollutant emissions in port environments.

There is a direct and close relationship between ship emissions in port waters and the operational status of the ships. Precisely identifying the operational status of ships in port waters and thoroughly exploring the specific relationship between these activities and ship emissions is crucial for achieving accurate control and scientific reduction of emissions from ships in port areas. With advancements in technology, AIS data can accurately capture the operational status of ships, facilitating a macro-level analysis of ship behavior and emission characteristics.

Analysis of emission characteristics associated with vessel activities states in port waters.

This study investigates AIS data from March 2019 to February 2020 in Shanghai Port waters. The ship activities of berthing, waiting, and ingress/egress are extracted in detail to elucidate the emission characteristics of ships in Shanghai Port, differentiating emissions patterns across various ship activity. The findings reveal that the top three pollutants within Shanghai Port are CO, NO, and SO.
