Optimisation and control of tidal range power plants operation: Is there scope for further improvement?

Energy Conversion and Management: X
Tidal barrage power plants utilise the tidal range variation to generate clean electricity. Although there are several operating tidal barrage schemes around the globe, there is still potential to expand the installed capacity.

Intertidal Warfare: Synergistic Allelopathy Mediates Spatial Competition between Two Marine Calcareous‐Shelled Sessile Organisms

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals a hidden chemical weapon among calcareous‐shelled sessile organisms in the intertidal zone: the barnacle Balanus albicostatus releases a synergistic blend of palmitic acid and 1‐palmitoyl‐sn‐glycero‐3‐phosphocholine as the allelochemical with the inhibitory activity against attachment of the mussel Vignadula atrata, which may mediate
