The Effect of Changing Weather Patterns on Route Planning

Your Passport to Adventure at Sea

"Marked intensification of global warming has altered world cruising routes."

Cornell’s Ocean Atlas, by Jimmy and Ivan Cornell, was first published in 2011 as a way to provide hundreds of pages of information drawn and updated from traditional pilot charts, and to illustrate the voyages that Cornell described in his 2012 World Voyage Planner. Changes in global weather patterns—some of which are extreme—made it necessary to publish an updated third edition this year. Here’s why that’s important.
