Impact of sea level rise on tidal energy budget in a macro-tidal coastal bay with archipelago

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
With sea level rise (SLR), tidal nuisance flooding has become a growing threat, especially around estuaries with large tidal amplitudes. This study investigated how sea level change affects tides in Hangzhou Bay, a macro-tidal estuary with high SLR rate.

Open-Source Code-Based Tidal Modeling of Tropical and Temperate Waters

open access: yesFrontiers in Energy Research, 2021
Tidal energy is the most reliable and predictable form of renewable energy capable of ensuring energy security in coastal regions of the world. Many developing countries are prone to energy self-sufficiency due to a lack of tidal data, expensive ...

Long-Term Trends and Variability of Water Levels and Tides in Buenos Aires and Mar del Plata, Argentina

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2017
We present an analysis of the long-term trends and variability of extreme water and tidal levels and the main tidal constituents using long-term records from two tide gauges in the wider region of the Rio de la Plata estuary: Buenos Aires (1905–2013) and

The International Mass Loading Service [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The International Mass Loading Service computes four loadings: a) atmospheric pressure loading; b) land water storage loading; c) oceanic tidal loading; and d) non-tidal oceanic loading. The service provides to users the mass loading time series in three

Results from the Search for Tidal Disruption Flares in the GALEX Deep Imaging Survey [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
A supermassive black hole in the nucleus of a galaxy will be revealed when a star passes close enough to be torn apart by tidal forces and a UV/X-ray flare is emitted by the stream of stellar debris that plunges into the black hole.

From Globular Clusters to Tidal Dwarfs: Structure Formation in the Tidal Tails of Merging Galaxies

open access: yes, 2003
Using V and I images obtained with WFPC2/HST, we investigate compact stellar structures within tidal tails. Six regions of tidal debris in the four classic ``Toomre Sequence'' mergers: NGC 4038/39 (``Antennae''), NGC 3256, NGC 3921, and NGC 7252 (``Atoms

Tidal range structure operation assessment and optimisation [PDF]

open access: yesDams and Reservoirs, 2019
The construction and operation of tidal range structures has been in the spotlight since the UK Government-commissioned Hendry Review advised that tidal power can play a significant role in the future energy mix. Tidal range proposals undergo rigorous scrutiny over their feasibility and environmental implications, despite presenting opportunities to ...

Photon and neutrino redshift in the field of braneworld compact stars

open access: yes, 2011
We study gravitational redshift of photons and neutrinos radiated by the braneworld neutron or quark stars that are considered in the framework of the simple model of the internal spacetime with uniform distribution of energy density, and the external ...

Extraction of tidal channel networks from airborne scanning laser altimetry and aerial photography [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The study of the morphodynamics of tidal channel networks is important because of their role in tidal propagation and the evolution of salt-marshes and tidal flats. Channel dimensions range from tens of metres wide and metres deep near the low water mark

The tidal stripping of satellites

open access: yes, 2005
We present an improved analytic calculation for the tidal radius of satellites and test our results against N-body simulations. The tidal radius in general depends upon four factors: the potential of the host galaxy, the potential of the satellite, the
