- Additional information
- Demonstrates that there is a clear link between the extended winter North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) and the wave energy resource to the west of Orkney. Since climatic indices such as the NAO have a predicted cycle of variability, this improves long range estimates of the wave energy resource during the most energetic time of the year. The research led to invitation (Neill) to join the scientific steering committee of the US Department of Energy “wave and tidal energy hotspots” project; contact Zhaoqing Yang, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, Zhaoqing.Yang@pnnl.gov.
