Declining or Waning
- Historical Maritime Studies:
Research focusing on historical maritime events and practices has diminished, potentially due to a growing emphasis on contemporary issues such as technology, sustainability, and regulatory frameworks. - Traditional Fishing Practices and Economics:
Studies on traditional fishing methods and their economic implications have become less prevalent, possibly overshadowed by more pressing concerns regarding marine conservation and sustainable fisheries. - Maritime Education and Training:
Although still relevant, the volume of research specifically addressing maritime education methodologies and training programs has decreased, as attention shifts towards practical applications of skills in the maritime workforce. - Small-scale Coastal Shipping:
The focus on small-scale or coastal shipping operations has waned, likely as larger shipping and logistical frameworks gain more attention in light of globalization and efficiency demands.
