The sinking of the MS Explorer: implications for cruise tourism in Arctic Canada / D. Draper, E.J. Stewart.

Title: The sinking of the MS Explorer: implications for cruise tourism in Arctic Canada / D. Draper, E.J. Stewart.
Author(s): Draper, D.
Stewart, E. J.
Date: 2008.
In: Arctic. (2008.), Vol. 61(2) (2008)
Abstract: Discusses implications of sinking of MS Explorer in Antarctic waters in November 2007 for polar cruise tourism. Notes that risks of occurrence of similar cruise-related accident are increased by climate change in polar regions (e.g. hazards presented by presence in certain parts of Canadian Arctic of denser, hull-penetrating, multi-year ice).
Notes:

Arctic. Vol. 61(2) :224-228 (2008).
