Light and its interaction with microalgae are essential concerns in the context of microalgae studies. The optical properties of microalgae have a great impact on the remote sensing ocean color, underwater light distribution and biomass accumulation, to mention some areas. A deep understanding of these...

This paper addresses the possible drainage and collapse of closed flexible cages in sea-based fish farming. A closed flexible cage is a floating bag structure containing water that is enclosed from the ambient water. Possible density stratification in typical fjord locations can cause buoyancy driven...

Marine litter in the Arctic Basin is influenced by transport from Atlantic and Pacific waters. This highlights the need for harmonization of guidelines across regions. Monitoring can be used to assess temporal and spatial trends but can also be used to assess if environmental objectives are reached,...

SMARTFISH H2020 is to develop, test and promote a suite of high-tech systems for the EU fishing sector, thereby optimizing resource efficiency, improving automatic data collection for fish stock assessment, provide evidence of compliance with fishery regulations and reduce the ecological impact of the...

In future power systems, wind power plants are supposed to contribute in the voltage and frequency stability of the grid. For this purpose, the control strategy of the wind power-frequency converter system needs to change from grid-following to grid-forming control. In this paper, the influence of future...

...heat and power production. The novelty of the work lays in that (i) it provides an analysis of the transient performance of biomass-based fluidized bed combustion plants for combined heat and power production, (ii) the dynamic model includes a description of both the gas and water-steam sides and (iii)...
