• Wave energy converter configuration in dual wave farms 

  Bergillos, Rafael J.; Rodriguez-Delgado, Cristobal; Allen, James; Iglesias, Gregorio (Elsevier, 2019-03-11)

  Wave farms, i.e., arrays of Wave Energy Converters (WECs), have recently been proven to be effective in fulfilling the dual function of carbon-free energy generation and coastal protection. In this paper these dual-function ...
• Using passive acoustic monitoring to investigate the occurrence of cetaceans in a protected marine area in northwest Ireland 

  Todd, Nicole R. E.; Cronin, Michelle; Luck, Cian; Bennison, Ashley; Jessopp, Mark; Kavanagh, Ailbhe S. (Elsevier Ltd., 2019-12-02)

  Under the EU Habitats Directive, cetacean species must be maintained at favourable conservation status in European waters. Whether this is achieved via protected area designation, curtailment of activities such as fishing ...
• A trip upstream to mitigate marine plastic pollution - a perspective focused on the MSFD and WFD 

  Black, Jeffrey E.; Kopke, Kathrin; O'Mahony, Cathal (Frontiers Media, 2019-11-12)

  Developing and implementing effective legislation to combat plastic litter in the marine environment has proven a significant challenge. This is in large part due to an incomplete understanding of the sources and transport ...
• Wave-to-wire model development and validation for two OWC type wave energy converters 

  Benreguig, Pierre; Kelly, James; Pakrashi, Vikram; Murphy, Jimmy (MDPI AG, 2019-10-18)

  The Tupperwave device is a closed-circuit oscillating water column (OWC) wave energy converter that uses non-return valves and two large fixed-volume accumulator chambers to create a smooth unidirectional air flow, harnessed ...
• Biological hydrogen methanation systems–an overview of design and efficiency 

  Rusmanis, Davis; O'Shea, Richard; Wall, David M.; Murphy, Jerry D. (Taylor and Francis Inc., 2019-11-03)

  The rise in intermittent renewable electricity production presents a global requirement for energy storage. Biological hydrogen methanation (BHM) facilitates wind and solar energy through the storage of otherwise curtailed ...
