DFIG versus PMSG for marine current turbine applications [PDF]
, 2012 Emerging technologies for marine current turbine are mainly relevant to works that have been carried out on wind turbines and ship propellers. It is then obvious that many electric generator topologies could be used for marine current turbines. As in the

Dynamic Behavior of Floating Tidal Current Power Device Considering Turbine Specifications
한국해양공학회지, 2018 Tidal current power is one of the energy sources of the ocean. Electricity can be generated by converting the flow energy of the current into the rotational energy of a turbine.

Performance evaluation and modelling of the Atir marine current turbine
IET Renewable Power Generation, 2021 In this study, the behaviour of a full‐size prototype of a platform for tidal energy was analysed. The turbine of this platform is formed by two counter‐rotating rotors aligned with the tidal current, such that one rotor is always under the wake of the ...

Estimating the total mortality of seabirds following a marine heat wave
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Marine heat waves detrimentally affect a range of marine species, including seabirds, and are increasing in frequency and severity. When thousands of dead seabirds wash up on beaches, the public becomes concerned. However, the number of dead birds recorded on beaches is only a fraction of the total mortality; most birds perish at sea.
