Reassessment of tidal energy potential in India and a decision-making tool for tidal energy technology selection

, 2017
Oceans have significant renewable energy options to provide environmental friendly and clean energy. Technology for ocean energy systems and the feasibility for extraction of the same is an important area on which research is being focused worldwide ...

Integrated Species Distribution Model Using Historical Data Shows Decline in a Common Semi‐Aquatic Mammal

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
A diagram of the integrated species distribution model of river otter intensity of use. Three types of data (latrine detections, roadkill detections, and detection/nondetection surveys) are linked by different observation processes to the same underlying intensity of use.

Overview geotechnical model tests on dike safety at Deltares [PDF]

, 2012
Three on-going dike safety studies (on: macro stability, piping and flow slides) in the Netherlands make use of geotechnical physical models. A short outline of these projects is presented; the physical models chosen are described and discussed.

The known unknowns of hydraulic engineering [PDF]

, 2008
Hydraulic engineers and researchers deal with scientific challenges involving turbulent flow motion and its interactions with the surroundings. Turbulent flows are characterised by unpredictable behaviour, and little systematic research has yet been ...

Coastal evolution, environmental change and carbon storage in the Thung Prong Thong Mangrove, eastern Gulf of Thailand

Boreas, EarlyView.
Palaeoenvironmental records along the eastern coast of Thailand remain sparse, with only a few studies attempting to reconstruct past climatic and environmental conditions. However, additional palaeoenvironmental, palaeoclimatic and sea‐level records are needed to improve our understanding of coastal evolution and local environmental changes.

Palaeoenvironmental evolution of the Baltic Sea basin during the Last Interglacial (Eemian, Mikulino stages): a review

Boreas, EarlyView.
This review presents an investigation of the evolution of the Baltic Sea basin and its connections through the Eemian Stage, based upon sequences of marine and associated deposits from the White Sea to the Southwest Baltic, via the Karelian channel. Pollen analyses, foraminiferal and ostracod analyses provide the evolution of relative sea‐level change,

Palaeolandscape reconstruction of a shallow coastal embayment in Kattegat, Denmark—influence of sea‐level changes during the latest Pleistocene and Holocene

Boreas, EarlyView.
We analyse the geological processes of a coastal embayment in the Kattegat. Using high‐resolution seismic data and sediment cores, we describe a geological evolution from glacial to shallow marine stages with a variety of preserved facies from different depositional settings, including glacio‐lacustrine, telmatic, limnic and coastal environments.

Ecological imbalances in the coastal areas of Pakistan and Karachi Harbour [PDF]

, 1995
The marine environment of Pakistan has been described in the context of three main regions : the Indus delta and its creek system, the Karachi coastal region, and the Balochistan coast.

A limpet's eye view of post‐glacial isostasy: fixed biological indicators provide new sea‐level index points for the Mid‐Holocene relative highstand in eastern Northern Ireland

Boreas, EarlyView.
Bioerosional scars made by limpets (Patella) on a cliff in Co. Antrim, Northern Ireland, indicate a Mid‐Holocene RSL of +7.8±0.55 m relative to local mid‐tide level today. This is higher than previous empirical data for the region and extrapolated levels from raised shorelines in Scotland but consistent with some recent GIA models.
