Hindcasting and forecasting of surface flow fields through assimilating high frequency remotely sensing radar data
(MDPI AG, 2017-09-08)In order to improve the forecasting ability of numerical models, a sequential data assimilation scheme, nudging, was applied to blend remotely sensing high-frequency (HF) radar surface currents with results from a ... -
Seamounts in a restless ocean: response of passive tracers to sub-tidal flow variability
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2010-08-01)The action of sub-tidal oceanic flow impinging on an isolated seamount, and its consequences for biological tracer patterns, was assessed using a three-dimensional ocean circulation model. Passive tracers released above ... -
Towards a low-cost modelling system for optimising the layout of tidal turbine arrays
(MDPI AG, 2015-11-30)In the long-term, tidal turbines will most likely be deployed in farms/arrays where energy extraction by one turbine may significantly affect the energy available to another turbine. Given the prohibitive cost of experimental ...
