The survey was part of a larger project, “Climate Change Adaptation Assessment for Transportation in Arctic Waters (CATAW)” which examined the risks and opportunities associated with climate change induced increases in shipping throughout Arctic Canada and developed adaptation strategies that mitigate risks and enhance opportunities. A key finding of the CATAW project was that cruise ships are a vector for some of the highest impacts arising from marine transportation in the region.pp.19-19en© IPTRN, 2018cruise shipConference Contribution - published
