2 Outline Tidal science at Liverpool Modelling the tide Some tidal energy studies Tidal energy atlas Joule project NW tidal barrages ( ) Mersey Tidal Power Feasibility Study (20) Development of Scottish Shelf Waters Model for Marine Scotland ( ) Ecowatt2050 project (funded by EPSRC, ) FLOWBEC X-band radar measurement of tidal currents NERC MREKEP CORER (Centre for Offshore Renewable Energy Research) established 204
3 Tidal science at Liverpool Liverpool Tidal Institute established 99 led by Prof Joseph Proudman National Tidal and Sea Level Facility AnyTide iphone and Android App:
4 Tidal Energy Atlas: based on NOC POLCOMS HRCS model
5 NOC Liverpool has been involved in development of digital tidal models 2-D (depthaveraged), now 3-D since 970 s e.g. Flather (98); Recently unstructured grids e.g. ADCIRC (2D), FVCOM (3D Wakelin et al. (2009) POLCOMS Atlantic Margin Model (AMM)
6 2-D Modelling using ADCIRC unstructured grid model (Liverpool University, NOC: Joule Project) Burrows et al. (2009), Walkington and Burrows (2009) Grid resolution varies from 5km at the ocean boundary to ~50m in estuaries of interest: Severn, Dee, Mersey, Ribble, Morecambe Bay and Solway Firth 6
7 Joule Project Tidal results Power (2009): Potential Tidal barrages of the Eastern in the estuaries Irish Sea of the North West could meet half the region s present electricity needs. Low water High water Barrage Wolf et al., 2009) Wolf et al 2009
8 Scottish Shelf Waters Model Aims and objectives: to develop a validated three dimensional baroclinic hydrodynamic model for Scottish shelf waters, for tides and residual circulation; to develop a validated three dimensional hydrodynamic model for each of four identified case study areas (Pentland Firth/Orkney Waters, St Magnus Bay, East Coast of Lewis and Harris, Wider Loch Linnhe System to develop a validated wave model for the Pentland Firth and Orkney Waters case study area to integrate the case study sub models into the wider domain shelf model. The output of the modelling will provide a quantitative description of marine currents and water properties for the whole of Scottish shelf waters on a range of spatial scales, to inform Marine Scotland and aid in marine management and licensing for MRE and aquaculture.

19 9 Sustainable use of natural resources How will barrages, turbines, wind farms and other energy extraction devices affect the flow, hence the sediment transport and ecology? There may be long term, large area changes in sediment distribution due to changes in tidal flow and waves. North Hoyle
20 Environmental Impacts Tides Change in tidal regime Changes in tidal resource for conjunctive operation of large arrays Environmental modification Intertidal area Turbulence and Mixing Sediment transport, water quality, morphology Structures may provide habitats and enhance biodiversity
21 EcoWatt 2050 (EPSRC): Led by Prof Jon Side, Heriot-Watt, Orkney We will use the Marine Scotland SSW FVCOM model the validated model has been delivered to MSS and will be provided to the project Coupled 3D hydrodynamic/wave/ecosystem model to be provided by NOC Implement large-scale tidal stream arrays, using the TeraWatt methodology and run for present day and future climate
