Two-scale momentum theory for very large wind farms [PDF]
A new theoretical approach is proposed to predict a practical upper limit to the efficiency of a very large wind farm. The new theory suggests that the efficiency of ideal turbines in an ideal very large wind farm depends primarily on a non-dimensional ...

MARINE INEQUALITY, BORDERIZATION, AND THE RADICAL POTENTIAL OF KINSHIP
ABSTRACT This article utilizes scholarship on borders to interpret the persistence of inequality in Indigenous seascapes, irrespective of moves to redress colonial wrongs or the growing anthropocenic recognition of human‐nature interconnectedness.

Development of a Computational Fluid Dynamics Simulation Model for a Horizontal Axis Tidal Stream Turbine [PDF]
Tidal stream turbines have generated significant research interests due to their major advantages over some other forms of renewable generation. As this technology is relatively new, deployment of tidal turbines is hindered by various problems.

Misplaced fears? What the evidence reveals of the ecological effects of tidal power generation
Marine energy (tidal range and stream/flow) is a dependable and clean power source that stands out as a compelling alternative to fossil fuels. Despite widespread concerns surrounding the ecological effects of tidal energy infrastructure, we find few of these are substantiated by evidence or long‐term monitoring of existing tidal power projects.

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

Abstract Coastal subarctic systems are inhabited by bivalve and gastropods, which due to their lifecycle and longevity are reliable indicators of ecological alterations in the environment. Recent laboratory studies have shown that young life stages of invertebrates perceive natural sounds, and their settlement, behavior, and fitness could be altered by

Ocean Energy: Using the Ocean's Tides, Waves, and Heat to Generate Electricity [PDF]
Key facts: - The oceans' tides, waves, current, and heat can be used to generate electricity. These resources are renewable, because the moon's gravity drives tides, and winds create waves.
