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).

Participatory Policy Development: Reflections on Designing the Strong Roots for Our Futures Program in Victoria

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this paper, we trace the journey to create the Strong Roots for our Futures Program, a government program to resource and support Traditional Owners to undertake a range of activities in areas where no state recognition existed. We provide a background to state recognition in Victoria before considering the program design, leading to an ...

A review of global tidal stream energy resources

Proceedings of the Royal Society A Mathematical Physical and Engineering Science
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.

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 ...

Carrion ecology: concepts, interdisciplinary synthesis, and perspectives

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Carrion is a ubiquitous resource in both terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, yet it has long been overlooked in ecological research. Over the past two decades, studies on carrion and the many organisms that exploit it have flourished, revealing not only wide‐ranging ecological functions but also significance far beyond ecology.

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.
