This open access book explores the impact of the Arctic shipping routes on the reconfiguration of the global maritime transportation pattern and China's maritime transportation productivity from an interdisciplinary perspective, including climate change, the Arctic, and maritime transportation. The innovative nature of the study lies in its combination of the strategic value of the Arctic shipping routes with the mechanism of their influence on China's maritime transportation productivity. The book employs a range of quantitative methods, including general equilibrium analysis, spatial econometrics, and counterfactual evaluation, to assess China's maritime transportation productivity. The content encompasses alterations in global maritime patterns, the economic and geographical significance of Arctic shipping routes, the measurement of China's maritime transportation productivity. Utilising a theoretical framework model, an assessment framework and layout optimization strategy for the impact of Arctic shipping routes on China's maritime transportation productivity is established. This book is intended for academic researchers, policymakers, and professionals in the maritime industry. It covers a range of topics, from macro-level theoretical frameworks to empirical research, and finally to national strategic countermeasures. The following are the primary features of the system: The integration of natural science and social science theories is imperative in order to construct a comprehensive analytical framework for Arctic shipping and maritime productivity. Furthermore, it is essential to propose practical and feasible paths that are in line with China's development towards the Arctic Economic Corridor. In addition, achieving a balance between academic rigour and policy applicability through quantitative models and case studies is crucial, as this will provide theoretical and practical insights for reshaping the global trade pattern and enhancing China's maritime competitiveness.
