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.

Peraza and Horne
Knowledge gaps exist in the collective effort to quantify risks and impacts of fish-turbine interactions. Empirical data and modeling studies have characterized stages of fish approach and pass through hydrokinetic turbines, but there has not been a comprehensive model that quantifies conditional occurrence probabilities of fish approaching and then interacting with a turbine in sequential…

Raghukumar et al.
Sound generated by marine energy (ME) installations in the ocean environment remains a particular concern for environmental permitting despite the limited evidence showing low levels of ME sounds relative to other anthropogenic sounds. In an effort to increase understanding of potential environmental effects of marine energy projects and help reduce barriers to marine energy deployments, a new…

The dominance of political communication over an issue like wind energy has the power to overwhelm attempts to frame wind farming as a scientific or environmental issue in the mediated public sphere. Using regulation as the primary newsmaker, politicians instead of scientists or environmental organizations become journalists’ sources in framing the issue. Wind energy is a special issue that is…

Ørsted’s Skipjack Wind will be Maryland’s first offshore wind project off the coast of the Delmarva Peninsula. It will occupy a 24.37 square km lease area, have an installed capacity of 966 megawatts, and power over 300,000 homes in the region. Skipjack Wind is scheduled to be operational in the second quarter of 2026…

Wave energy is seen as an innovative and promising technology, which has the potential to contribute significantly to achieving EU renewable energy goals. The European-funded SOWFIA project aims to facilitate the development of European wide coordinated, unified and streamlined environmental and socio-economic Impact Assessment (IA) tools for offshore wave energy conversion deployments…

The ocean is not a ‘silent world’, particularly near coastlines. Wave breaking, seismic events and marine inhabitants all contribute to background noise. In recent years, sounds from human activities such as shipping, seismic surveys and seabed drilling have increased the ambient level in certain areas. It is likely that the deployment of Wave Energy…

Currently, although environmental risks associated with the deployment and operation of single MRE devices are very low, the uncertainties associated with commercial arrays will require investigation as larger arrays are deployed. A risk-based approach to survey and consenting is an element of Adaptive Management (AM), which in turn is a structured process that enables learning by…
