Tidal current resource assessment [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part A: Journal of Power and Energy, 2007
This paper outlines present thinking on the determination of accessible tidal current resources within channels and other potentially exploitable locations. The fundamental principles behind tides and tidal currents are briefly discussed and the implications of temporal and spatial variations on the evaluation of the resources considered in the context

Circulation in the Gulf of Khambhat—A Lagrangian Perspective

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
The circulation of the Gulf of Khambhat (GoK) is studied from a Lagrangian point of view using a 2D numerical model. The model-predicted tide elevation and current speed are in agreement with the observations.
