- Abstract
Aiming at the natural features and assisting navigation status on the Arctic routes, the impacts of Arctic shipping on China's container shipping, crude oil import shipping and bulk cargo shipping are analyzed. It is concluded that the Arctic navigation will reduce the shipping cost. The economic potential it brings will make a positive impact on the international shipping between China-Europe, and China-eastern America. With the further melting of the Arctic ice, assisting navigation's cost can be reduced or even canceled. And the rapid development of navigation technology, the shipbuilding technology will make Arctic routes the important link among China, the United States and Europe.
