Journal Article
Ng, A. K. Y., Ducruet, C., Jacobs, W., Monios, J., Notteboom, T., Rodrigue, J., …Wilmsmeier, G. (2014). Port geography at the crossroads with human geography: between flows and spaces. Journal of Transport Geography, 41, 84-96. https://doi.org/10.1016/j

Port research is not a new field of interest for human geographers, evidenced by numerous conceptual models and empirical cases of port evolution and development in the literature. However, several critical questions remain unanswered, notably the ex... Read More about Port geography at the crossroads with human geography: between flows and spaces.

The impact of container type diversification on regional British port development strategies (2014)
Journal Article
Monios, J., & Wilmsmeier, G. (2014). The impact of container type diversification on regional British port development strategies. Transport Reviews, 34(5), 583-606. https://doi.org/10.1080/01441647.2014.946457

Despite a concentration of container traffic in the southeast of the UK over the last few decades, regional ports are attempting new development strategies to capture or retain specific traffic segments. These include intra-European short-sea traffic... Read More about The impact of container type diversification on regional British port development strategies.

Port system evolution: the case of Latin America and the Caribbean. (2014)
Journal Article
Wilmsmeier, G., Monios, J., & Perez-Salas, G. (2014). Port system evolution: the case of Latin America and the Caribbean. Journal of Transport Geography, 39, 208-221. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jtrangeo.2014.07.007

The explosion of global container trade in the last two decades has significantly influenced the port geography of Latin America & the Caribbean (LAC), leading to a concentration of container traffic at selected ports. Theory suggests that, as port s... Read More about Port system evolution: the case of Latin America and the Caribbean..

The role of intermodal transport in port regionalisation. (2013)
Journal Article
Monios, J., & Wilmsmeier, G. (2013). The role of intermodal transport in port regionalisation. Transport Policy, 30, 161-172. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tranpol.2013.09.010

The port regionalisation concept extended earlier spatial models of port development with a focus on institutional relationships governing the complexity of inland connections. The concept accounts for the fact that modern ports operate in an increas... Read More about The role of intermodal transport in port regionalisation..

Rosyth-Zeebrugge: a potential intermodal maritime logistics corridor for Scottish freight transportation. (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Wang, Y., Mathie, I., & Monios, J. (2013, July). Rosyth-Zeebrugge: a potential intermodal maritime logistics corridor for Scottish freight transportation. Paper presented at 26th European Conference on Operation Research

The majority of freight originated from Scotland is trucked south to go via Channel Tunnel or ports in Southeast England. As Scotland’s only ferry connection to mainland Europe, however, the service between Rosyth and Zeegrugge is struggling with ins...
