1991-2000
The PortDatabase contains all the papers dealing with port economics, policy and management that were published in academic journals since 1950s. The list of papers included is based on a systematic review of the content of all the academic journals that are published by international publishers – While the list up and included 2010 is a definite one, more recent lists remain subject to confirmation. The database is updated at the end of each month.
The database includes papers on the role of ports in maritime, logistics and intermodal transport networks, logistics functions of ports, papers on clustering of maritime activities, spatial developments in port regions, studies of port performance, studies of market structures in ports and so on. It does not include papers on port engineering, terminal operations, terminal equipment, waterfront development, and port history.
