Current research
Over the last few years my research has continued to focus on containershipping. At present I am exploring the relationships between containershipping networks and logistics and am collaborating with a colleague inFrance to assess the ability of intermediate hubs to attract logisticsactivities. My interests have also been turning to consider bulk shipping. Recently, I have been working on projects for Transport Canada ondeveloping performance indicators for Canadian bulk terminals, and onassessing the implications for Canadian bulk ports of the rapid upscalingin ship sizes in the world fleet.
