Determination of Potential Tidal Power Sites at East Malaysia

, 2020
Tidal range energy is one of the most predictable and reliable sources of renewable energy. This study’s main aim is to determine potential sites for tidal range power in East Malaysia, by analyzing tidal range distributions and resources and the ...

Mathematical analysis of the turbine coefficient of performance for tidal stream turbines [PDF]

, 2014
Unregulated water currents such as tides and ocean currents include energy that could be utilized for electricity production. These currents can be seen as dead bodies of water with potential energy, driven by gravity or alive moving with a kinetic ...

Geochronology of the Whittlesey sedimentary succession, eastern England: The ‘Pompeii’ of the British late Middle Pleistocene to Holocene record

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The sedimentary succession at Whittlesey preserves a unique British late Middle Pleistocene to Holocene record back to a time equivalent to at least marine oxygen isotope stage 8 (ca. 250 ka). This study builds on previously published sedimentology, geochronology and palaeoecology results to establish 20 sedimentary facies associations, with ...

Bilan des connaissances de la dynamique de l’érosion des côtes du Québec maritime laurentien [PDF]

, 2004
Un bilan des connaissances de la dynamique de l’érosion côtière dans l’estuaire et le golfe du Saint-Laurent montre que le recul du littoral dans les formations meubles est très important, variant généralement entre 0,5 et 2 m/an.

Comparing the Last Interglacial (MIS 5e) with the present interglacial period (MIS 1) using a multidimensional functional diversity analysis: The marine molluscs from Santa Maria Island (Azores Archipelago, central Atlantic) as a case study

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Marine fossil records hold outstanding importance for ecological, evolutionary and biogeographical studies. Santa Maria Island in the Azores Archipelago (central Atlantic) features a remarkable marine fossil record spanning from the Pliocene to recent times.

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

Limnology 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 ...

Two‐Dimensional Transition Metal Dichalcogenides Properties Enhanced by Nano‐ and Micro‐Scale Shape Control

MetalMat, EarlyView.
This review explores current strategies for shaping two‐dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) beyond their planar form. It highlights how strain engineering, nanopatterning, and growth on complex substrates modulate their mechanical, optical, and electronic properties.

Fate of large-scale vortices in idealized tidal lagoons

Environmental Fluid Mechanics, 2018
The generation and evolution of tidally-induced vortices in coastal and estuarine regions can influence water quality and sedimentary processes. These effects must be taken into consideration in the development of coastal reservoirs, barrages and lagoons,

Comparing convolutional neural network and random forest for benthic habitat mapping in Apollo Marine Park

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
A comparison of Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Random Forest (RF) model predictions of benthic habitats within Apollo Marine Park. The CNN (left) and RF (right) classification maps show the spatial distribution of three habitat types: high energy circalittoral rock with seabed‐covering sponges, low complexity circalittoral rock with non‐crowded
