Theoretical limits to tidal stream energy extraction

open access: yes, 2016
Tidal stream energy has gained attention as a source of predictable and renewable energy. Devices resembling underwater wind turbines, placed in fast tidal streams, have been proposed to extract this energy. Arrays of many such devices will need to be deployed to deliver a significant amount of energy to the electricity grid.

Sailing Through Setbacks—What Makes Personal Financial Resilience?

open access: yesAccounting &Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We investigate financial adaptation by young adults (18 to 40 years old) during a recent cost‐of‐living crisis in a developed economy. Interview, financial, demographic and psychographic data are brought together to shed new light on personal financial resilience, or the capacity to adapt to financial shocks.

Can Tidal Current Energy Provide Base Load?

open access: yesEnergies, 2013
Tidal energy belongs to the class of intermittent but predictable renewable energy sources. In this paper, we consider a compact set of geographically diverse locations, which have been assessed to have significant tidal stream energy, and attempt to ...

Legitimation and Trust Strategies for Sustainability in and for Global Sport Events: The Case of the ‘Climate Positive’ Brisbane 2032 Olympics

open access: yesBusiness Ethics, the Environment &Responsibility, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT International sport governing bodies are increasingly under scrutiny due to their questionable environmental sustainability records of global sport events, thereby facing a potential legitimacy gap and loss of trust that the proclaimed sustainability goals can be achieved.

Dark Matter Direct Search Rates in Simulations of the Milky Way and Sagittarius Stream

open access: yes, 2012
We analyze self-consistent N-body simulations of the Milky Way disk and the ongoing disruption of the Sagittarius dwarf satellite to study the effect of Sagittarius tidal debris on dark matter detection experiments. In agreement with significant previous

Integrating ecological feedbacks across scales and levels of organization

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
In ecosystems, species interact in various ways with other species, and with their local environment. In addition, ecosystems are coupled in space by diverse types of flows. From these links connecting different ecological entities can emerge circular pathways of indirect effects: feedback loops.

A review of global tidal stream energy resources

open access: yes
This review identifies 426 candidate sites with potentially suitable characteristics for tidal stream energy development, across 19 countries in Europe, the Americas, Asia and Australasia. The most common site assessment quantifies the theoretical resource, which is the maximum amount of total energy that can be extracted.

Compound‐Specific Stable Isotope Analysis Reveals Population‐Specific Differences in Chinook Salmon Trophic Level and Basal Resource Use in the Northeast Pacific

open access: yesFisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chinook salmon exhibit far‐flung and disparate population‐specific marine migrations that have made it difficult to assess their trophic ecology. In this study, we collected returning and resident subadult Fraser River Chinook salmon in 2018 and 2019 from population groups with different known run‐timings (spring, summer, and fall) and marine ...

Vessel arrival planning with full information

open access: yesInternational Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Planning efficiency and timely arrival of vessels is crucial to smooth operations of maritime transport networks, ensuring optimal utilization of resources and minimizing operational costs. Coordination between vessel operators and terminals has the potential to reduce costs, fuel consumption, and waiting time.
