dc.descriptionThe authors would like to acknowledge the technical support of D. Mackay (Hydro Products Ltd., U.K.) and J. Patterson (Imagenex Technology Corp., Canada) with the MBES, E. Armstrong, V. Budreika, N. Collie, P. Copland, I. Davies, C. Hall, J. Hunter, W. Leiper, N. Morrison, B. Ritchie, C. Stewart, M. Watson, and colleagues at Marine Scotland Science, U.K., for assistance with development of the FLOWBEC platform, as well as P. Frith and P. Reddish (University of Bath, U.K.) and staff at the European Marine Energy Centre (EMEC). They also gratefully acknowledge the support of MarCRF (Marine Collaboration Research Forum). Three-dimensional hydrodynamic model data were kindly provided by FLOWBEC project partners P. Cazenave and R. Torres (Plymouth Marine Laboratory, U.K.). E. Rollings (Environment and Consents Manager, MeyGen Ltd.) is supporting the application of these techniques to monitoring the MeyGen tidal array, Scotland, as funded with an Innovate U.K. Knowledge Transfer Partnership. The constructive comments from the two anonymous reviewers and Editorial Staff are gratefully acknowledged. 10.13039/501100000270-Natural Environment Research Council (NERC); 10.13039/501100000277-Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs (Defra); NERC MREKEP Internship; Innovate U.K. Knowledge Transfer Partnership with MeyGen Ltd.en
