Tidal Modulation of Energy Dissipation Routes in the Gulf Stream
Geophysical Research Letters, 2023 The Gulf Stream (GS) is a powerful ocean current that is instrumental in regulating the global climate. While a correct reproduction of GS dynamics is contingent on an appropriate representation of energy dissipation, the specific role of tides in ...

Direct Detection of Dark Matter Debris Flows
, 2012 Tidal stripping of dark matter from subhalos falling into the Milky Way produces narrow, cold tidal streams as well as more spatially extended "debris flows" in the form of shells, sheets, and plumes. Here we focus on the debris flow in the Via Lactea II

On the Stability of Tidal Streams [PDF]
, 2011 We explore the stability of tidal streams to perturbations, motivated by recent claims that the clumpy structure of the stellar streams surrounding the globular cluster Palomar 5 are the result of gravitational instability.

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.Abstract Background Volatile anaesthetic agents contribute to climate change, and reducing this impact is a commendable ambition. We evaluated the efficiency of a veterinary capture device for isoflurane (VET‐can/VET‐dock, SageTech Veterinary) in anaesthetised cats and dogs.

Misplaced fears? What the evidence reveals of the ecological effects of tidal power generation
Ecological Solutions and EvidenceTidal energy is a dependable and clean power source that stands as a compelling alternative to fossil fuels. Despite this promise, tidal energy projects face barriers to practical implementation, and objections to proposed schemes often stem from ...

Incorporation of a Non-Constant Thrust Force Coefficient to Assess Tidal-Stream Energy
Energies, 2019 A novel method for modelling tidal-stream energy capture at the regional scale is used to evaluate the performance of two marine turbine arrays configured as a fence and a partial fence.

The Giant X-Ray Flare of NGC 5905: Tidal Disruption of a Star, a Brown Dwarf, or a Planet? [PDF]
, 2002 We model the 1990 giant X-ray flare of the quiescent galaxy NGC 5905 as the tidal disruption of a star by a supermassive black hole. From the observed rapid decline of the luminosity, over a timescale of a few years, we argue that the flare was powered ...

M. E. Grant Duff, Philosophic Liberalism and the Global Liberal Cause
History, EarlyView.Abstract Historians disagree about how best to conceptualize nineteenth‐century British Liberalism in relation to its international contexts. This article argues that we can better understand the patterns involved by interrogating individuals who bridged the worlds of partisan politics and elaborated thought.

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020 The Strait of Larantuka, with highly energetic tidal stream currents reaching speeds of up to 3−4 m/s, is a promising site for renewable electricity production from the ocean. This paper presents the results of an assessment regarding the potential

THE AESTHETICS OF URBAN METABOLISM: Landscape, Design and the Politics of In/Visibility
International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.Abstract In this article, we chart the evolving aesthetic contours of urban metabolism across London, focusing on the River Lea and Thamesmead to the north and south of the River Thames, respectively. We begin in the nineteenth century, when these two sites formed critical nodes within a new sewerage system that relegated the city’s circulatory flows ...
