This study aims to estimate the emissions, air quality, and population exposure impacts of shipping in 2015 prior to the implementation of the DECAs. It showed that ship emissions within 12 nautical miles (NM) could account for over 55 % of the ships' impact on air pollution in the YRD in summer season. Ships entering the Yangtze River and other inland waterways of Shanghai contribute 40–80 % of the ship related air pollution and population exposure，which have an important implications for policy.
