Tidal range energy resource and optimization – Past perspectives and future challenges [PDF]

open access: yesRenewable Energy, 2018
Tidal energy is one of the most predictable forms of renewable energy. Although there has been much commercial and R&D progress in tidal stream energy, tidal range is a more mature technology, with tidal range power plants having a history that extends back over 50 years. With the 2017 publication of the “Hendry Review” that examined the feasibility of

Subarctic tidal flats in areas of large tidal range, southern Baffin Island, eastern Canada [PDF]

open access: yesGéographie physique et Quaternaire, 2011
Wide, boulder-strewn intertidal flats occur around the head of Frobisher Bay and along parts of the shoreline of Cumberland Sound, in southeast Baffin Island. The coastal environment is characterized by large tidal ranges, severe winter sea ice conditions, and a relative sea level history which involves rapid and then decreasing land emergence during ...

NUMERICAL INVESTIGATIONS OF FLUSHING TIME IN SMALL MARINAS [PDF]

open access: yese-GFOS, 2021
This paper presents the results of 2D and 3D numerical simulations of sea circulation and water mass exchange for a marina with hypothetical dimensions (L/B=2 and L/B=0.5) to calculate the return flow factor.

Tidal range resource of the Patagonian shelf [PDF]

open access: yesRenewable Energy, 2023
With vast potential for renewable energy conversion, the ocean could help reduce our reliance on fossil fuels. Of the various forms of ocean energy, tidal range power is both mature and predictable, dating back to 1966. However, only a few regions of the world are suited to tidal range power. Here, we examine the tidal range potential of the Patagonian

Analysis of fine grained sand and shale sedimentary characteristics in estuary based on sediment dynamics

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2023
Due to the dual effects of fluvial and tides, the tidal sand bars in estuaries have complex sedimentary characteristics and complex internal structures, making them difficult to predict and describe.

A Day-Ahead Scheduling Model of Power Systems Incorporating Multiple Tidal Range Power Stations

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Sustainable Energy, 2023
With the global trend to exploit more renewable energy sources, tidal range energy has been gaining more attention recently. This power generation technology is expected to reduce the share of fossil fuels and provide flexibility to the power system ...

Effects of Sea Level Rise on Tidal Dynamics in Macrotidal Hangzhou Bay

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
Sea level rise (SLR) due to climate change is expected to alter tidal processes and energy transport, disproportionately affecting coastal communities. Utilizing a nested hydrodynamics model, we provided an integrated investigation of tidal responses to ...

Tidal and Physicochemical Effects on Phytoplankton Community Variability at Tagus Estuary (Portugal)

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
The Tagus Estuary is one of the largest estuaries in Europe and merges large urban and industrial areas. Understanding phytoplankton community variability is key for an appropriate assessment of the estuarine ecological status.

Analyzing spatial variability of drivers of coastal wetland loss in the northern Gulf of Mexico using Bayesian multi-level models

open access: yesGIScience & Remote Sensing, 2021
A modeling framework that can quantify the impact of multiple potential drivers on coastal wetland loss while estimating its uncertainties is needed to better conserve and restore these valuable ecosystems.
