Sea Shipping Emissions 2015: Netherlands Continental Shelf, 12-Mile zone and Port Areas
report
This study aims to determine the emissions to air of seagoing vessels and fishing vessels for 2015. The results of the fishing vessels is reported in a separate document prepared by Jan Hulskotte, TNO [4]. The totals and the spatial distribution for the Netherlands Continental Shelf, the 12-mile zone and the port areas Rotterdam, Amsterdam, the Ems, the Western Scheldt, Den Helder and Harlingen are all based on AIS data. In previous years there was not enough AIS data available for the WesternScheldt, however, for 2015 we received data of the Schelde Radar Keten. Therefore the standard AIS procedure also holds for this area. The emissions for 2015 are determined for CH4, VOC, SO2, NOx, CO, CO2 and Particulate Matter (PM). The grid size for the port area emissions and the 12-mile zone is 500 x 500 m, for the Netherlands Continental Shelf area a grid size of 5000 x 5000 m has been used.
