Abstract

Based on the collected data including wind, wave, tide and current, this paper uses the grid method to analyze the influential factors on marine accidents in the harbors and waters surrounding Taiwan. Finally, some interesting findings are shown and some useful suggestions are given to the managers of harbors and the decision makers of governmental marine departments. This research results can hope to reduce the risk of the climatic and marine environmental factors, and to increase the navigation safety of ships in the harbors and waters surrounding Taiwan.
