This site-wide search returns results for all documents, events, metadata, and stories in Tethys, prioritizing the best matches. Partial word matches are returned (e.g. "environment" finds "environmental"), but every entered term must be found. If you don't find any results, try reducing the number of words entered or removing special characters. Filters to the right can help narrow your search. Tethys now features an integrated search with other marine renewable energy databases in PRIMRE - click the buttons below "Showing Results for" to search other integrated databases.

Peralta et al.
The cyclic soil behavior of North Sea clays and silica sands have been well-documented (Andersen 2004, 2009, etc), and have been used globally to develop soil models and design foundations for structures subjected to cyclic wave loading. The recent development of offshore wind farms within the Atlantic Offshore Continental Shelf (OCS) in the U.S. have prompted the large-scale design of fixed-…

Trandafir et al.
This study presents site-specific CPT-based correlation relationships for preconsolidation pressure, undrained shear strength, relative density and effective friction angle, developed for geotechnical characterization of foundation zone sediments at the Atlantic Shores offshore wind farm development. Results of laboratory geotechnical tests on samples from 49 soil borings performed at the…

Varnell et al.
This study illustrates a ground model approach used to characterize the complex site conditions within the Atlantic Shores Offshore Wind Farm Lease Area. The ground model is the result of the integration of geophysical, geological, geotechnical, and benthic (environmental) data to evaluate marine geohazards and summarize seafloor and sub-seafloor conditions. The ground model is provided in a…

Spicer et al.
Tidal energy extraction is increasingly being studied as a potential renewable energy resource in estuaries worldwide. Although it is understood that energy extraction via tidal stream turbines can modify currents and transport within estuaries, it is not clear how the underlying nonlinear physical mechanisms dictating tidal hydrodynamics are modulated. This research investigates the influence…

DNV AS has carried out an Environmental benthos survey at the Equinor-operated wind farm Hywind Scotland, situated 25 km off the coast of Peterhead in Scotland, UK. There are still uncertainties regarding the potential environmental impact from a floating wind park due to the floating technology being a relative novel development solution. Using the world’s first operational floating offshore…

New York State Offshore Wind Master Plan: Analysis of Multibeam Echo Sounder and Benthic Survey Data
Physical and biological characterization of the seafloor is critically important for future offshore wind development in the New York Offshore Study Area (OSA) and, while full site characterization of any particular areas proposed for development will be performed at the project development stage, improved understanding of the OSA’s characteristics will facilitate New York State’s Offshore… - Report:

Deepwater Wind South Fork has collected extensive data to support the characterization of habitats within the South Fork Wind Farm and along the South Fork Export Cable route. These data were used to conduct detailed benthic habitat mapping and a crosswalk of delineated benthic habitat types to essential fish habitat. Habitats were described in terms of complexity, sediment composition,…

Natural Resource Wales
This guidance has been produced by Natural Resources Wales (NRW) to provide advice to developers about the information needed to inform environmental assessments of tidal lagoon developments in Welsh waters. The document provides an overview of the key environmental implications of tidal lagoon development in Wales. The guidance is not exhaustive and does not replace the need for…
