Modeling Assessment of Tidal Energy Extraction in the Western Passage

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
Numerical models have been widely used for the resource characterization and assessment of tidal instream energy. The accurate assessment of tidal stream energy resources at a feasibility or project-design scale requires detailed hydrodynamic model ...

Numerical Assessments of Tidal Stream and Wave Energy in Coastal Shelf Seas

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
Tidal stream and wave energy resources may have the potential to complement the exploitation of wind power currently promoted, in industrial countries, as one of the alternatives to fossil fuel energies [...]

Using drifting passive echolocation loggers to study harbour porpoises in tidal-stream habitats

Endangered Species Research, 2013
Moored passive acoustic detectors (e.g. C-PODs) are widely used to study harbour porpoise Phocoena phocoena distribution and relative abundance, but their use in tidal-stream habitats is complicated by the need for retrievable flow-resistant seabed ...

A Study of Circulation, Turbulence, and Tidal Stream Resources in the Taiwan Strait

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020
The 3-D Princeton Ocean Model with tidal forcing supplied by a 2-D barotropic model was used to examine the time-depth variability and features of tidal current, turbulence, and power of tidal stream energy in the Taiwan Strait (TS).

Extent, characteristics and policy applications of Key Biodiversity Areas

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A global standard for the identification of Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) was published 10 years ago to provide a unified set of criteria for identifying ‘sites of significance for the global persistence of biodiversity’. We review the initiative's origins, the KBA identification process, characteristics of the current network, threats, policy

Fuzzy Supervision Based-Pitch Angle Control of a Tidal Stream Generator for a Disturbed Tidal Input

Energies, 2018
Energy originating in tidal and ocean currents appears to be more intense and predictable than other renewables. In this area of research, the Tidal Stream Generator (TSG) power plant is one of the most recent forms of renewable energy to be developed ...

Climate Risk and Real Estate Markets in the EU: Institutional Control Through Regulation

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate change is increasingly reshaping the economic foundations of asset markets, yet its implications for the estate sector remain unevenly understood, particularly when institutional and financial mechanisms mediate risk transmission. While a growing body of evidence links climate vulnerability to property valuation and market behaviour ...

A review of global tidal stream energy resources

Proceedings of the Royal Society A Mathematical Physical and Engineering Science
This review identifies 426 sites with potentially suitable characteristics for tidal stream energy development, across nineteen 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 by filling a site with turbines ...

Kinetic energy of tidal currents in the province of Chubut, Argentina

International Marine Energy Journal, 2022
This work is a preliminary study to find some sites for the potential use of tidal stream energy and their associated currents in the Chubut coast.  In addition, an evaluation of the energy resource of the Chubut Gulfs is made.
