Lecture Notes in Energy,2195-1284 ;68981-13-1588-4 Introduction to Sustainable Energy Security -- The need for Sustainable Energy Security -- Energy transportation in a dynamic maritime environment -- Shipping and Port Infrastructure -- Maritime Security Challenges -- Offshore Energy Resources and Emerging Opportunities -- Energy Transportation and Shipping Emissions -- Policy Options and Strategies -- Conclusion and Recommendations.The maritime domain and sustainable energy are two critical aspects of the twenty first century which will shape the future of humanity. Although the maritime domain is inextricably interlinked with Sustainable Energy Security (SES), many aspects are discussed in isolated silos. This book aims to fill in this gap by presenting a holistic view of the maritime dimension of SES. It includes various topics such as the global energy system, energy supply chains, energy trade, shipping of energy commodities, energy markets, protection of maritime energy supply lines and the role of military in providing maritime security. It also focuses on harnessing offshore energy resources, both hydrocarbons and marine renewable energy and discusses the developments in lowering emissions from the shipping sector. The book is written for the general reader as well as students who are undergoing a course in energy systems, maritime management, naval studies and energy sustainability. The content is tailored to meet the intellectual curiosity of the inquisitive reader and introduces various specialized topics which are dealt in a simple and concise manner. It is hoped that this book would bridge the gap in the understanding of the maritime dimension of SES.Lecture Notes in Energy,2195-1284 ;68Ocean engineeringEnergy securityShippingOffshore Engineeringhttp://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/T23070Energy Securityhttp://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/121000Maritime Economicshttp://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/W55000Energy Policy, Economics and Managementhttp://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/112000Transportationhttp://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/119000Energy Policy, Economics and Managementhttp://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/112000Ocean engineering.Energy security.Shipping.Offshore Engineering.Energy Security.Maritime Economics.Energy Policy, Economics and Management.Transportation.Energy Policy, Economics and Management.627.98Narula Kapilauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut933291BOOK9910350287503321The Maritime Dimension of Sustainable Energy Security2100672UNINA05420nam 22006133u 450 991046212200332120210106232219.0(CKB)2670000000241339(EBL)952894(OCoLC)818858232(SSID)ssj0000079922(PQKBManifestationID)11983249(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000079922(PQKBWorkID)10076543(PQKB)22788282(MiAaPQ)EBC952894(EXLCZ)99267000000024133920130418d2012|||| u|| |engur|n|---|||||txtccrThe Columbia Guide to American Environmental History[electronic resource]New York Columbia University Press20121 online resource (469 p.)Columbia Guides to American History and CulturesDescription based upon print version of record.0-231-11233-5 Contents; Acknowledgments; Introduction; Part I HISTORICAL OVERVIEW: TOPICS AND THEMES; 1.

How have political systems dealt with conflicts over resources and conservation? This is the only major reference work to explore all the major themes and debates of the burgeoning field of environmental history. Humanity ́s relationship with the natural world is one of the oldest and newest topics in human history. The issue emerged as a distinct field of scholarship in the early 1970s and has been growing steadily ever since. The discipline ́s territory and sources are rich and variedColumbia Guides to American History and CulturesHuman ecology -- United States -- HistoryNature -- Effect of human beings on -- United States -- HistoryUnited States -- Environmental conditionsElectronic books.Human ecology -- United States -- History.Nature -- Effect of human beings on -- United States -- History.United States -- Environmental conditions.304.2333.70973Merchant Carolyn494053AU-PeELAU-PeELAU-PeELBOOK9910462122003321The Columbia Guide to American Environmental History2171047UNINA
