Introduction
I study the fine scale movements and behaviour of marine mammals in tidally energetic environments using active and passive acoustics, specifically harbour porpoises and seals and monitor the effects of the tidal energy industry.

Article
Full-text available
Tidally energetic habitats are used by a range of marine mammals, including pinnipeds. These areas are also important to the tidal energy industry, leading to an overlap between tidal developments and important habitats used by seals. The concerns around negative ecological impacts from tidal turbines derive primarily from the potential for fatal c...

Understanding how marine animals behave around tidal turbines is essential if we are to quantify how individuals and populations may be affected by the installation of these devices in the coming decades. Our particular interest is in collision risk, and how this may be affected by the fine-scale behaviour of seals and small cetacean species around...
