Abstract

The Bay of Fundy in Eastern Canada has the highest tides in the world, with a range from low tide to high tide that can exceed 15 m in Minas Basin at the head of the Bay. Interest in harnessing these tides for the generation of electricity has raised challenging questions about the environmental impact of a tidal power development, and stimulated basic research which has elucidated the role of the tides in the general oceanography of the region.
