1 Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion: Potential Environmental Impacts and Fisheries Christina M Comfort, M.Sc. Candidate University of Hawaii at Manoa Department of Oceanography Hawaii Natural Energy Institute
2 Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) Renewable energy ocean thermal gradient Large water flux Intakes at 20m and 1000m cubic meters /sec >6 million cubic meters per day! Environmental impacts * Coastal Response Resarch Center Report, 2010
3 OTEC development on Oahu OTEC Plants Intakes: 20 and 1000m Discharge m 5-10 km from shore 100MW 10MW SWAC Intakes: 500m Discharge: 50m
4 OTEC Environmental Impact Operational Noise OTEC Warm Water Intake: Entrainment Impingement Biota attraction or avoidance Release of biocides Cold water intake: Entrainment Discharge Plume: Redistribution of nutrients Secondary entrainment
5 Importance to fisheries Entrainment and impingement Mortality of eggs and larvae Mortality of food source for pelagic fisheries? Mechanical shear, cold shock Plume Changes in local conditions Aquaculture? FAD effects + enhanced productivity?
6 Assessing risk for entrainment and impingement Plankton and micronekton Species present 3-D distributions Densities Seasonal variability Night Seafloor Example: Mesopelagic boundary community Day Entrainment risk: MBC at daytime residence depth Seafloor OTEC Benoit-Bird et al., Mar. Ecol. Prog. Ser. 319:1-14.
7 MOCNESS surveys on leeward Oahu: Scombrids Tuna larvae offshore of Oahu 1-2 km offshore Entrainment risk: T. albacares more abundant nearshore K.pelamis more abundant offshore Calculation: million larvae entrained per month for both skipjack and YFT 5-15 km offshore Alarming at first glance! Consider tuna reproductive biology Boehlert and Mundy Mar Ecol. Prog. Ser. 107:1-13
8 Yellowfin Reproductive Biology YFT Fish Weight vs. Batch Fecundity - Hawaii Spawning frequency Hawaii: days Batch fecundity 2-10 million (Hawaii) Seasonality June-August Itano, JIMAR Contribution
9 Yellowfin Reproductive Biology Larval YFT in Pacific Ocean Suzuki, FAO Technical Paper, after Nishikawa et al., 1985.
10 MOCNESS results: other species Mahimahi, swordfish, billfish Rare in NMFS, Miller and Leis studies Sampled from neuston off Kona Ono Collection of larvae rare in HI Reef fish Mostly inshore Offshore families: Labridae, Parapercidae, Serranidae, Gobiidae, and Carangidae Smaller spatial scale for population Boehlert and Mundy, NOAA Technical Report NMFS Hyde et al., Mar. Ecol. Prog. Ser. 286: Clarke, NOAA Technical Report NMFS.
11 Distribution of Reef/Oceanic larvae Offshore OTEC Leis and Miller, Marine Biology. 36:
12 Plume: alteration of local conditions OTEC Additional productivity? Aggregation of fish downstream? Discharge Plume: Higher nutrients Lower temperature Lower salinity
13 Plume Modeling: Makai Engineering Nitrate: 150m after 7d operation Based on 100m outflow Internal waves? Makai Engineering, Optimizing OTEC Sustainability Using a Hydrodynamic Modeling Tool
14 Plume and enhanced productivity Next generation fisheries Aquaculture based on upwelled nutrients Golman et al., WREC.
15 Challenges and Gaps in Knowledge: OTEC and Fisheries Fishing and protected species management: OTEC as a FAD Ecosystem level impacts of entrainment/impingement Numbers of entrained organisms can be calculated Recruitment, spawning area, mixing and retention Effects on populations? Artificially upwelled deep water Enough nutrients for effective aquaculture at sea? Would it have significant ecosystem impacts in higher trophic levels?
16 Conclusions OTEC s operation will unavoidably affect pelagic fish Noise and water pollution FAD effects Entrainment and Impingement Effects of altered stratification and nutrient concentrations Significance? Aggregation, upwelling nutrients Pilot plant: 5-10MW test facility, 1-2 years operation Monitor rigorously Experiment to look at potential ecosystem effects
17 Thank you! Questions?
