This bibliography cites literature on the safety aspects for the design and operations of ports and harbors, including deepwater terminals. Design includes port access and approach; currents, tides and configuration, 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 a few abstracts which reference literature on vessel traffic data, special ports for typhoon havens, and harbor accident reports. Some of the abstracts reference national and international conferences. (Contains 119 citations fully indexed and including a title list.)
