Frequently asked questions
What is in the Trends archive?
Every maritime news story MarineRadar has published, newest first, 24 to a page. The archive is the complete record — the Trends front page carries only the six most recent stories.
How do I find a specific story?
Use the search box on this page. It searches the title, date and category of every story in the archive, not just the page you are currently viewing, so you do not have to page through to find something.
Are published stories ever changed?
Yes, when something turns out to be wrong. Every correction to a published number or claim is logged in public at /trends/corrections with the date and what changed, and the story itself carries its own revision date.
