Tidal Wave

How much did GW blow on totally ineffective tidal-wave detection technology?

Thanks for answers that prove what a total jerk Bush was. Lets spend trillion and than figure out how it works. Annoyed how unnecessary over reaction may cause to disregard necessary warning in the future.

Ineffective? There was a Tsunami and it detected it. Its just the science is not developed enough yet to be able to predict the size of a incoming Tsunami yet. How is that being ineffective?

Ocean Tidal Power as Renewable Energy

One of the Earth’s great renewable energy sources is actually the energy that can be found in all the waves of the ocean. Let’s look at this further.

If you have ever been to the ocean, you were probably fascinated by the phenomena of the waves crashing against the shorelines as the tides came in. The ocean’s tides are the product of gravitational pull of the sun and the moon, as well as, the Earth’s rotation. It causes the ocean waters to be raised and lowered from time to time. The tides have cycles of twelve and one half hours, twice per day, and are easily predictable.

The use of tidal power is seen as early as the twelfth century where tidal mills used the force of the tides to grind grain and corn. The eighteenth century brought competition from windmills and waterwheels. Tidal mills pretty much became extinct with the invention of cheap steam engines. In 1967, France became the first to be able to put tidal wave power to work on a large scale to produce electricity.

The generation of electricity from tidal waves is similar to that of hydroelectric power generation. Bigger dams, known as barrages, are built on the bottom of a tidal basin. Gates on the barrage allow the tidal basin to fill during incoming high tides. Likewise, the basin will empty through a turbine during the outgoing tide. This would turn an electric generator for the production of electricity. There are also systems that generate electricity from incoming and outgoing tides. This system can have a negative effect on plants and animals in the area.

Tidal fences are also used to generate electricity. Vertical axis turbines are mounted on fences. Passing water is forced through the turbines. Ideal locations for these are channels between two landmasses. Tidal fences are cheaper than tidal barrages and cause less of an environmental impact on large marine life.

Tidal turbines are a new technology used for tidal energy. They are similar to wind turbines and are arranged underwater in rows. They work best in areas with strong tides. Although they are heavier and costlier to build, they also are capable of capturing more energy. They are also the least environmentally damaging of all the tidal power technologies, since they do not interfere with migration paths.

In order for tidal power to work successfully it requires a tide difference of at least sixteen feet. Unfortunately there are only a few places where this occurs. This means tidal power plants cannot just be constructed anywhere. There are only a handful of sites on Earth with this type of tidal range. At present, France is the only country that has been successful in using tidal power. It is hoped developments in technology, through research, will be made to allow better use of this, what is now, wasted energy. The future of tidal energy seems hopeful. Tidal power has great potential and hopefully we can make better use of it in the future in our quest to find a replacement for fossil fuels.

The Tidal Wave and Other Stories $26.98 Ethel May Dell was a British writer of popular romance novels. Her father was a clerk in the City of London, where she lived with an older brother and sister. She began writing while young, and had stories in popular publications. Most of her stories were tales of passion set in India and other British colonies. After several years of work and many rejections, her first novel, The Way of an Eagle was published, and in four years went through twenty-seven printings. She was savaged by critics but very popular with readers, and appeared not to care what the critics thought. The Tidal Wave and Other Stories is a collection of stories originally published in the Red magazine, a British women’s magazine. The volume includes "The Tidal Wave," "The Magic Circle," "The Looker-On," "The Second Fiddle," "The Woman of His Dream," and "The Return Game." In "The Tidal Wave", fisherman Rufus the Red finds his life upset. The Ship, the local inn where Rufus sometimes spends an evening, has a new resident. Columbine has come to live with the owner, her aunt Mrs. Peck. Rufus is a solitary man, capable of taking on any two men when his temper is up, and content to be left alone by others, but that is about to change . . .
