The group of researchers part of the Tidal Power Engineering group are proactively publishing the result of their research in some of
the top international journals and conferences related to the field of Tidal/Renewable Energy. Internal and industrial reports also play
a big part in the dissemination of information from the group. Graduate thesis, reporting in-depth research methodology and results
are also available through the Dalhousie's Dalspace Institutional Repository.
