Tidal current turbines have the potential to make a considerable contribution to renewable
energy supplies. However, the potential for utility-scale deployments will depend not only on …

This paper reviews the more widely used bed-load surrogate acoustic measuring
techniques that were tested both in flume experiments and field settings. A fair number of …

The potential impacts of underwater noise on marine mammals are widely recognised, but
uncertainty over variability in baseline noise levels often constrains efforts to manage these …

Indirect bedload transport measurements have been made with the Swiss plate geophone
system in five gravel‐bed mountain streams. These geophone sensors record the motion of …

Surrogate technologies to monitor bed load discharge have been developed to supplement
and ultimately take over traditional direct methods. Our research deals with passive acoustic …

Chacao Channel is an energetic tidal channel located at the northernmost part of the
Chilean Patagonia. The channel has been previously identified as a prospective site for tidal …

This is the second volume of a two-volume guide to designing, conducting and interpreting
laboratory and field experiments in a broad range of topics associated with hydraulic …

The deployment of tidal energy arrays is gaining momentum to provide marine renewable
energy (MRE) to the global market. However, there are concerns over the potential impacts …

The growing interest in generating electrical power from tidal currents using tidal turbine
generators raises a number of environmental concerns, including the risk that marine …
