Trapped tidal currents generate freely propagating internal waves at the Arctic continental slope [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2023 Energetic tidal currents in the Arctic play an important role in local mixing processes, but they are primarily confined to the shelves and continental slopes due to topographic trapping north of their critical latitude.

Observed Tidal Currents in Prydz Bay and Their Contribution to the Amery Ice Shelf Basal Melting
Ocean-Land-Atmosphere Research, 2023 Tides play a key role in regulating the circulation and water properties around Antarctica, yet tidal currents and the corresponding influences in Prydz Bay have not been quantified with observational datasets.

Scale Model Experiment on Local Scour around Submarine Pipelines under Bidirectional Tidal Currents
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021 In nearshore regions, bidirectional tidal flow is the main hydrodynamic factor, which induces local scour around submarine pipelines. So far, most studies on scour around submarine pipelines only consider the action of unidirectional, steady currents and

Trends in tidal power development [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2020 Tidal energy has been around for almost 2, 000 years, as the first Tide Mills date the Romans times. Tidal power generation then emerged in the 1960s, with the construction of the 240 MW La Rance power station, a still working example of good renewable ...

Arctic tidal current atlas [PDF]
Scientific Data, 2020 AbstractTidal and wind-driven near-inertial currents play a vital role in the changing Arctic climate and the marine ecosystems. We compiled 429 available moored current observations taken over the last two decades throughout the Arctic to assemble a pan-Arctic atlas of tidal band currents.

Rectified tidal transport in Lofoten–Vesterålen, northern Norway [PDF]
Ocean Science, 2021 Vestfjorden in northern Norway, a major spawning ground for the northeast Arctic cod, is sheltered from the continental shelf and open ocean by the Lofoten–Vesterålen archipelago.

Adélie penguin foraging location predicted by tidal regime switching. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Penguin foraging and breeding success depend on broad-scale environmental and local-scale hydrographic features of their habitat. We investigated the effect of local tidal currents on a population of Adélie penguins on Humble Is., Antarctica.
