By making use of its Arctic Ship Traffic Data System (ASTD), PAME has documented the increase of Arctic shipping that coincides with decreasing sea ice extent and increasing maritime activity as fishing, cargo transportation, cruise tourism etc. @Ilisimatusarfik @MarpartProject

[Protection of the Arctic Marine Environment @PAME_Arctic]

For example, the Report shows that during this six-year period, the number of ships entering the Arctic grew by 25%, and the distance sailed by ships in the Arctic increased by 75%.
