Tidal Power – Harnessing the Power of the Ocean for Energy Independence
Article by Tessie Forbes
Tidal power is the only form of energy which derives directly from the relative motions of the Earth in relation to the Moon (and to a lesser extent from the Earth-Sun system). Tidal forces are produced by the Moon and Sun, in combination with Earth’s rotation, which forces water higher or lower depending on the tidal flow. Other sources of energy originate directly or indirectly from the Sun, including fossil fuels, conventional hydroelectric, wind, biofuels, wave power and solar. Nuclear is derived using radioactive More >

What would happen if someone removed all the magnesium from the ocean?
Jan 19th
Question by Ann: What would happen if someone removed all the magnesium from the ocean? I’m researching a new discovery about a machine called a MAGIC engine that takes magnesium out of the ocean and uses the sun to create energy in a way that produces only water and magnesium oxide (which can then be turned back into plain magnesium). I was wondering though, as all the magnesium from the ocean would have to be removed to provide energy to the entire world for the next 300,000 years, what would happen to the ocean if there was no magnesium in it?

Seychelles: The Jewel of the Indian Ocean
For sometime it was obvious President Michel was walking a tightrope. Come 2011 and Michel’s bold economic moves of liberalizing the Seychelles economy have not only borne great fruits but have also silenced his critics and surpassed IMF’s projections. The IMF had indicated that the Seychelles economy would only grow at 4% in 2010.
Surprisingly the Indian Ocean nation clocked an impressive 6.2% economic growth mainly boosted by a record number of tourists who visited island nation, numbering 174,529 and Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) which saw some US0million being pumped into More >

Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion An Alternative Power Source
Article by DK Publishers
<html><body>
Although it is not widely known among the general population, Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion has a long history of development. French engineer Jacques Arsene d’Arsonval originally developed the idea of Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion in 1881. The first OTEC plant was constructed in Cuba in 1930 by d’Arsonval’s student, Georges Claude. Using a low pressure turbine, the plant generated 22kW of electricity.
The potential energy production from OTEC is tremendous and deserves additional exploration. At this point the greatest hurdle for OTEC is practical implementation. The processes and technology More >
