Holocene shoreline displacement and the impact of the Storegga tsunami on Hinnøya, northern Norway
Boreas, EarlyView.The Holocene relative sea‐level (RSL) history of Norway's largest island, Hinnøya, has been investigated in detail, using sediment records from 25 isolation basins. The sediments were analysed for macrofossil and phytoplankton content, which served as the basis for identifying marine–lacustrine transitions, that is isolation contacts. Terrestrial plant

Barrages: Engineering, Design and Environmental Impacts [PDF]
, 1996 The very word "barrages" is evocative. In the context of tidal waters it conjures up pictures of massive structures and environmental change. Barrages represent the engineer s success where King Canute failed to stop the tide coming in. They are hardly a

Environmental impacts of tidal power schemes [PDF]
, 2009 This paper describes the potential environmental changes caused by tidal power installations with illustration for schemes in the eastern Irish Sea, focusing mainly on major estuarine barrages.

Powers That Be: An Adventure in Metaphysics
Philosophical Investigations, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper is an investigation into the increasingly popular trend amongst philosophers on the metaphysics of powers, exemplified by the statement: ‘To be real is to possess a power to affect (or to be affected by) other things’. First, I briefly trace the history of this idea (from the Eleatic dialectic of ancient times to present day quantum

Phycological Research, EarlyView.SUMMARY We examined the seasonal growth and reproduction of the carrageenophyte Chondrus ocellatus in Hakampo, Korea (July 2014–April 2015), to understand its adaptation to environmental variability across the intertidal zone. Three hypotheses were tested: (1) growth is greater at the lower shore with reduced stress; (2) gametophytes dominate at the ...

High resolution modelling of tidal resources, extraction and interactions around the UK [PDF]
, 2015 This project was commissioned to study at the national level the interactions between tidal turbine arrays and tidal barrages and to investigate cumulative and in combination effects of both tidal stream / turbine and tidal lagoon / barrage technologies.

Representation and operation of tidal energy impoundments in a coastal hydrodynamic model
, 2016 A methodology associated with the simulation of tidal range energy projects through a coastal hydrodynamic model is discussed regarding its capabilities and limitations. Particular focus is directed towards the formulations imposed for the representation
