Ocean Downward Currents Energy Hypothesis

Abstract | This paper introduces a novel hypothesis that reef-associated downward currents, observed in reef channels such as the Great Maya Reef, represent an untapped renewable energy resource. By applying fluid dynamics principles, we estimate that velocity gradients in reef-driven downward jets could yield energy densities comparable to tidal stream resources. Comparative reef hydrodynamic studies support the plausibility of this mechanism, though empirical validation remains necessary. If confirmed, the approach could complement existing marine renewable energy technologies, particularly in reef-rich coastal and island regions |
