How do marine mammals control buoyancy?
This makes their surface buoyancy weak enough to swim against without great difficulty (unlike humans). As they dive their lungs compress rapidly with depth: V = Vs / (1 + D/10) V is lung volume, Vs is lung volume at surface, and D is depth in meters. At 90m, the lungs are already at 10% original volume.

Power Generation Using Ocean Waves: A Review
It has been found that the world has an 8 × 10 5 km of coastline exceeding a wave power density of 30 kW/m [3]. Also, Indian potential is around 14 kW/m on an average, with about 7500 km of shoreline. Even with just 10% utilization, the energy generated could be anywhere around 3750 × 10 3 to 7500 × 10 3 kW [4].
Safety of hydrogen storage and transportation: An overview on ...
The density of hydrogen is much lower than that of air (the density of air is 1.293 kg/m 3 under the standard conditions of 1 atmospheric pressure and 0 °C). In this case, hydrogen diffuses upward rapidly under the action of air buoyancy after leakage, and it does not easily accumulate to form a combustible gas mixture, which is conducive to its …
