Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Tidal power is generated by the rise and fall of tides, which is determined by the tidal range. The higher the tidal range, the more potential tidal power can be harnessed. Water turbidity (the measure of how cloudy or clear the water is) can affect the efficiency of tidal power generation equipment, as murky water can interfere with sensors and moving parts. Therefore, tidal power is limited to areas where tidal range is high and water turbidity is low.
