, Jun 10 2011 Studies assessing noise impacts of wave , tidal energy systems Effects of Noise on Wildlife Ocean Science Add comments An article in Renewable Energy World this month provides a great overview of ongoing research funded by the DOE that is assessing environmental impacts of Marine and Hydrokinetic” energy technologies . These new MHK” systems include anything that generates electricity from the movement of water without dams , including systems that tap waves , tides , currents , or ocean thermal gradients . Much of the research looks at the ways these systems can change the physcial dyanamics of ocean ecosystems e.g . reducing wave height by drawing energy from the waves , changes in sediment movement and salt freshwater mixing , etc . Of special interest here , of course ,
On Wednesday, June 15, observers outside of North America will be treated to relatively rare, central lunar eclipse – the first of two total eclipses and four partial eclipses set to occur in 2011.
Depending upon local weather conditions, the event should be visible throughout Africa and Central Asia, rising over South America, western Africa, and [...]
