Fisheries in a changing scene [includes section on proposed Morecambe Bay barrage scheme]: paper presented at Association of River Authorities, Annual Conference, Morecambe, 1967 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1967
The report looks at trends developing in the area of the Lancashire River Authority which will, by the turn of the century, bring tremendous pressures to bear on its natural resources, particularly land and water.

Spatial distribution of an eel population (Anguilla anguilla L.) in a small coastal catchments of northern Brittany (France). Consequences hydraulic works. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
The Frémur is a 60 km2 catchment of Brittany where many hydraulic works (dams, weirs, gauging structures, etc.) have reduced the recruitment by elvers and glass eels since at least 50 years.

Scour‐Conditioned Seismic Fragility Analysis of Monopile‐Supported Offshore Wind Turbines

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Monopile‐supported offshore wind turbines (MS‐OWTs) are increasingly deployed in seismic coastal regions, where they face compound risks from earthquake loading and seabed scour. While past studies have addressed these hazards separately, seismic fragility under evolving scour conditions remains insufficiently understood. This study introduces

Modelling the ecological impacts of tidal energy barrages

open access: yes, 2020
Tidal energy has the potential to form a key component of the energy mix of a number of countries, including the UK. Nonetheless, the deployment of tidal energy systems is associated with potential environmental impacts as prime resource sites often coincide with unique ecosystems inhabited by sensitive organisms.

Plasma Activate Nitrogen for Efficient Ammonia Synthesis

open access: yesExploration, EarlyView.
This review systematically summarizes the classification and reaction mechanism of plasma, and discusses the synergy between different plasmas and catalytic methods along with energy consumptions in detail, in order to gain a deeper understanding of currently ammonia synthesis strategies.

Mesoscale Circulation and Coral Community Disturbance at Isolated Reefs

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology Communications, EarlyView.
The Loop Current is a seasonally and interannually dynamic mesoscale oceanographic feature in the Gulf of Mexico that strongly influences connectivity and environmental conditions across the region. We investigated the influence of Loop Current variability on coral reef disturbances at isolated reefs in the northwest Gulf, including coral disease ...

Comparing non‐staining methods with Mutvei's solution to visualize growth increments in short‐lived intertidal marine gastropod shells

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Mutvei's solution is a widely utilized standard staining method for revealing growth increments in biogenic carbonates; however, it is a slightly toxic, destructive approach with varying success across species groups. Therefore, there has been growing interest in finding non‐toxic, less destructive, and straightforward alternative techniques ...
