Wind-Induced Currents in the Gulf of California from Extreme Events and Their Impact on Tidal Energy Devices

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
Tidal renewable energy is a promising alternative energy resource, and marginal seas are known as excellent sites for tidal energy exploitation. In-stream and tidal energy devices are less exposed to extreme weather events than wind energy. Nevertheless,

The tidal force function and tidal torques [PDF]

open access: yesStudia Geophysica et Geodaetica, 1996
The tidal force function of the two-body system is defined. It is formed by two parts, reflecting the direct, as well as, the indirect tidal effects. It enables deriving the tidal torques due to both the tidal effects independently of density distributions.

Tidal forces in naked singularity backgrounds [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 2015
The end stage of a gravitational collapse process can generically result in a black hole or a naked singularity. Here we undertake a comparative analysis of the nature of tidal forces in these backgrounds. The effect of such forces is generically exemplified by the Roche limit, which predicts the distance within which a celestial object disintegrates ...

Tidally-forced turbulence in planetary interiors [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Journal International, 2016
The turbulence generated in the liquid metal cores and subsurface oceans of planetary bodies may be due to the role of mechanical forcing through precession/nutation, libration, tidal forcing and collisions. Here, we model the response of an enclosed constant density fluid to tidal forcing by combining laboratory equatorial velocity measurements with ...

Tides and the flow of Rutford Ice Stream, West Antarctica [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
[1] Surface speeds of Rutford Ice Stream, West Antarctica, are known to vary by around 10–20% (depending on location) with a fortnightly periodicity corresponding to a springneap tidal cycle. The reasons for these periodic variations in flow are unclear.

Dynamics of Internal Tides Over a Shallow Ridge Investigated With a High‐Resolution Downscaling Regional Ocean Model

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2018
This study investigates the dynamics of tidally induced internal waves over a shallow ridge, the Izu‐Ogasawara Ridge off the Japanese mainland, using a downscaled high‐resolution regional ocean numerical model.

Adélie penguin foraging location predicted by tidal regime switching. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS 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.

Hindrance effect of tides on water exchanges between the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
As a semienclosed marginal sea, the Red Sea connects with the open ocean through a narrow strait at its southern end, known as the Bab-al-Mandeb (BAM) strait.

Tidal Stream vs. Wind Energy: The Value of Cyclic Power When Combined with Short-Term Storage in Hybrid Systems

open access: yes, 2021
This study quantifies the technical, economic and environmental performance of hybrid systems that use either a tidal stream or wind turbine, alongside short-term battery storage and back-up oil generators.
