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.

NOAA is developing comprehensive guidance on sound characteristics likely to cause injury and behavioral disruption in the context of the Marine Mammal Protection Act (MMPA), Endangered Species Act (ESA) and other statutes. Until formal guidance is available, NOAA Fisheries uses conservative thresholds of received sound pressure levels from broad band sounds that may cause behavioral…

Wind turbines harness the wind—a clean, free, and widely available renewable energy source—to generate electric power. The animation is interactive. You can start and stop the turbine’s movement, hover over parts to see their description, and use the icons in the lower right corner of the animation to switch views. A wind turbine turns wind energy into electricity using the aerodynamic…

US Geological Survey (USGS)
Pacific Coast fisheries information is currently available only from wildlife agencies in disparate databases. To maximize the value of these data, the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Regulation, and Enforcement and U. S. Geological Survey have combined data from several of these sources into a single, comprehensive database. This gives resource managers a tool to easily extract species or…

BC Cetacean Sightings Network
Sound is as important to cetaceans as light is to humans. In most oceans visibility underwater is limited to a few 10s of metres and is regularly much less. In response to the challenges of using light to navigate and locate food in the ocean, cetaceans have adapted to take advantage of the physics of sound underwater. Sound travels ~4.4 times faster in sea water than in air and, all things…

Acadia Tidal Energy Institute et al.
The Nova Scotia Tidal Energy Atlas is an interactive web mapping application that makes tidal energy related spatial information readily accessible to the public and provides online tools to allow users to interact with the data. Tidal energy-related spatial data collected to date represents work conducted in various projects and regions within the Bay of Fundy. These studies support the…

USGS scientists at the Fort Collins Science Center developed an active research program to investigate the causes and consequences of bat fatalities at wind turbines. Our specific focus is on (1) determining the geographic origins of killed bats and (2) assessing the potential roles of mating and feeding behaviors in the susceptibility of tree bats to deadly encounters with wind turbines. With…

The NOAA Electronic Navigational Charts (NOAA ENCs) contain navigational features in a vector format produced by digitizing each feature’s geometry into a specific object. NOAA cartographers collect the vector features using a data standard (S-57) recognized by international treaties and the International Hydrographic Organization. The navigational objects are maintained in a database along…
