Bardsey – an island in a strong tidal stream: underestimating coastal tides due to unresolved topography [PDF]
Ocean Science, 2020 Bardsey Island is located at the western end of the Llŷn Peninsula in northwestern Wales. Separated from the mainland by a channel that is some 3 km wide, it is surrounded by reversing tidal streams of up to 4 m s−1 during spring ...

Tidal Energy: The benthic effects of an operational tidal stream turbine
Marine Environmental Research, 2017 The effect of modified flow on epifaunal boulder reef communities adjacent to the SeaGen, the world's first grid-compliant tidal stream turbine, were assessed. The wake of the SeaGen was modelled and the outputs were used in conjunction with positional and substrate descriptor variables, to relate variation in epifaunal community structure to the ...

Tidal-stream power assessment—A novel modelling approach
Energy Reports, 2020 An alternative approach for simulating turbine array energy capture, momentum sink-TOC, was developed to improve conventional methodologies for assessing tidal-stream energy resource.

Tidal energy extraction modifies tidal asymmetry and transport in a shallow, well-mixed estuary
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023 Tidal energy extraction is increasingly being studied as a potential renewable energy resource in estuaries worldwide. Although it is understood that energy extraction via tidal stream turbines can modify currents and transport within estuaries, it is ...

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2019 Estimating the energy potential of tidal stream site is a key feature for tidal energy system deployment. This paper aims to compare two methods of prediction of tidal current velocities. The first one is based on the use of a fully three-dimensional (3D)

Tidal stream energy resource assessment in the Qiantang River Estuary, China
International Journal of Sustainable Energy, 2018 A tidal stream energy resource assessment can be achieved through direct measurements of tidal elevations or flow velocities, theoretical formulas, and numerical models. This paper first described the development of renewable energy in China.

Journal 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,
