Exactly what MPA published, collected every 10 min to hourly. Counts and sums only, no model.
MPA's live feeds as collected, minutes ago.

Forecast
Our models' predictions, each shown with its out-of-sample track record.
MPA publishes each month's figures about 16 days after it ends. We estimate them earlier from the ships' daily declarations.

Every figure is a whole calendar month, in the series' unit (kt = thousand tonnes, GT = Gross Tonnage, TEU = Twenty-foot Equivalent Unit). Likely range = 10th-90th percentile of past misses at the same stage. vs expected = our estimate against what the market assumes without this data: the same month last year, grown by the latest year-on-year change MPA has published. Only series where our estimate has beaten simple guesses in past months.

Normal = the median of comparable past values: the same weeks of the last 3 years for declared 7-day totals (scaled to this year's level), the last 7 days of readings for live numbers. vs normal = how far now is from it. Percentile p98 = higher than 98% of those values. HIGH / LOW = top / bottom 10% (outside p10-p90); VERY HIGH / VERY LOW = top / bottom 3%.

Every change between consecutive 10-minute snapshots, last 7 days.
