Observations of High Frequency, Long Range Acoustic Propagation in a Harbor Environment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The positioning and navigation of AUV\u27s in harbor environments using underwater acoustics is complicated by shallow waters, long propagation distances, and complex oceanographic features.

Deployment characterization of a floatable tidal energy converter on a tidal channel, Ria Formosa, Portugal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
This paper presents the results of a pilot experiment with an existing tidal energy converter (TEC), Evopod 1 kW floatable prototype, in a real test case scenario (Faro Channel, Ria Formosa, Portugal).

Vertical structure of bottom Ekman tidal flows: Observations, theory, and modeling from the northern Adriatic [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
From September 2002 to May 2003, fifteen bottom‐ mounted, acoustic Doppler current profilers measured currents of the northern Adriatic basin. Tidal fluctuations at all seven of the major Adriatic frequencies were synthesized from a response tidal ...

Response‐Based Prediction of Tidal Currents

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans
Abstract This study evaluates the response method for predicting tidal currents. We introduce a coupled response model which explicitly accounts for interactions between velocity components. By leveraging non‐parametric and data‐driven weight estimation, the approach demonstrates superior predictive accuracy compared to classical ...

Enhanced bottom-ice algal biomass across a tidal strait in the Kitikmeot Sea of the Canadian Arctic

open access: yesElementa: Science of the Anthropocene, 2019
Sea ice algae are an important contributor of primary production in the Arctic ecosystem. Within the bottom-ice environment, access to nutrients from the underlying ocean is a major factor controlling production, phenology, and taxonomic composition of ...

Formation of offshore tidal sandbanks triggered by a gasmined bed subsidence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Offshore gasmining is an example of a human intervention with a morphological impact. On land, it is usually attended with a dish-like bed depression.

Water-level controls on macro-tidal rip currents

open access: yes, 2014
Field measurements and numerical modelling have been used to investigate the water-level control of rip current dynamics on a macro-tidal beach. Field data collected over 32 complete tidal cycles, spanning a range of wave and tide conditions, demonstrate

The hydrodynamics of the southern basin of Tauranga Harbour [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The circulation of the southern basin of Tauranga Harbour was simulated using a 3-D hydrodynamic model ELCOM. A 9-day field campaign in 1999 provided data on current velocity, temperature and salinity profiles at three stations within the main basin. The
