This bibliography contains citations concerning the safety aspects for the design and operations of ports and harbors, including deepwater terminals. Design includes port access and approach; currents, tides, and configurations, including breakwaters; and risk analysis. Operational aids to safety include traffic control and communications, firefighting, security, and ancillary equipment, such as tugs and cargo handling equipment. Some of the literature pertains to minimizing hazardous risks inherent in some cargoes, such as chemicals and lng. There are many abstracts which reference literature on vessel traffic data, special ports for typhoon havens, and harbor accident reports.
