Implication

Systematic review reveals atmospheric impacts of high-resolution ship emissions, highlighting the need for coupled air pollution and climate co-mitigation.

Key Points

To review advancements in high-resolution ship emission inventories, evaluate their atmospheric and health impacts, and identify integrated air pollution and climate co-mitigation pathways.
Conducted a systematic PRISMA-style literature review analyzing ship emission sources, inventory methodologies, and policy frameworks.
Evaluated the transition of inventory modeling from top-down fuel metrics to bottom-up, AIS-driven high-resolution spatial models across global shipping routes and port-city interfaces.
Ship emissions drive primary pollutant burdens, secondary PM2.5 formation, and nonlinear ozone chemistry across coastal corridors, chokepoints, and port interfaces.
Environmental impacts and health risks vary substantially depending on local chemical regimes, meteorology, receptor proximity, and fuel quality.
Mitigation is shifting toward integrated air pollution and climate strategies including emission control areas, shore power, vessel speed reduction, alternative marine fuels, and Well-to-Wake life-cycle assessments.
