This book gives a thorough introduction and description of most aspects related to the operation of ships in polar and ice-covered waters. The subjects covered include geography, technology, environment, routing and regulations. This will be an invaluable book for those operating ships - onboard and ashore, as well as those involved in planning maritime operations in remote and ice-infested regions. "Ice Navigation" covers the subject matter in the IMO Guidelines for Ships Operating in Polar Waters (Resolution A.1024(26) Adopted on 2 December 2009), as well as the issues described in the STCW convention.
