Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2017 The offshore wind industry is building and planning new wind farms further offshore due to increasing demand on sustainable energy production and already occupied prime resource locations closer to shore. Costs of operation and maintenance, transport and

Optimization of Decommission Strategy for Offshore Wind Farms [PDF]
, 2016 The life time of offshore wind farm is around 20 years. After that, the whole farm should be decommissioned which is also one of the main factors that contribute to the high investment.

Systems of reciprocity in human–ocean relationships: Across time, place, language and culture
People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract In the face of large‐scale marine environmental challenges, solutions that meaningfully capture the complexity of socio‐cultural and economic factors contributing to such issues—and their solutions—are urgently needed. This scoping review explores examples of reciprocity in human–ocean relationships to inform the conceptual underpinning and ...

Comparing the economic feasibility of offshore floating wind and solar photovoltaic technologies in Central Mediterranean deep waters [PDF]
, 2015 Malta, being a very small and densely populated island in the central Mediterranean, has little space for large scale onshore wind turbine or photovoltaic projects. Maltese territorial waters are mostly too deep for conventional offshore wind farms

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.Vertical‐looking radar provides a first multi‐year analysis of migratory bat phenology in Europe. Bat activity was lowest in winter, increased from spring, and peaked in summer, with similar timing of pre‐ and post‐maternity migrations across years.

Wind farm wake effects at the Alpha Ventus offshore wind farm
, 2021 As wind energy grows to a significant contributor to the electricity production mix, the number of wind farms with large turbines, especially offshore, increases as well. This leads to wind farms being built closer to each other to increase spatial power density.

Practical Methodology for Developing Visions for Carbon‐Neutral Cities and Communities
Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Cities and communities play important roles in sustainable development and climate change mitigation. This study presents a novel framework for developing carbon‐neutral visions for cities and communities. We established five “principles,” investigated options encompassing four parameters (management, goal setting, actions, and quantification),
