Interactions among salt marsh plants vary geographically but not latitudinally along the California coast. [PDF]
, 2017 The strength of species interactions often varies geographically and locally with environmental conditions. Competitive interactions are predicted to be stronger in benign environments while facilitation is expected to be stronger in harsh ones.

Determination of salinity gradient power potential in Québec, Canada [PDF]
Journal of Renewable and Sustainable Energy, 2012 Electrical energy can be produced from the chemical potential difference of two liquids with dissimilar salinities. This source of energy is known as salinity gradient power. In this paper, the theory, the technologies used to exploit the power, the major challenges, and their development trends are first presented.

Optimization of net power density in Reverse Electrodialysis [PDF]
, 2019 Reverse Electrodialysis (RED) extracts electrical energy from the salinity difference between two solutions using selective ion exchange membranes. In RED, conditions yielding a large net power density (NPD) are generally desired, due to the still large ...

Doubled Power Density from Salinity Gradients at Reduced Intermembrane Distance [PDF]
Environmental Science & Technology, 2011 The mixing of sea and river water can be used as a renewable energy source. The Gibbs free energy that is released when salt and fresh water mix can be captured in a process called reverse electrodialysis (RED). This research investigates the effect of the intermembrane distance and the feedwater flow rate in RED as a route to double the power density ...
