某些章魚、烏賊、青蛙、蜥蜴、魚類等,都能透過控制特別的色素細胞,來變換體表的顏色。[1, 5]美國北卡羅來納大學威明頓分校(University of North Carolina Wilmington)的生物學家 Lorian E. Schweikert 等人,在光學顯微鏡下,看到長棘毛唇隆頭魚有黑色(melanophores)、紅色(erythrophores)與黃色(xanthophores)3 種色素細胞(chromatophores),平躺在魚鱗表面,一層薄薄的組織裡。他們還觀察到白、藍兩色,但是用穿透式電子顯微鏡確認時,卻遍尋不著白色素細胞(leucophores)和虹彩色素細胞(iridophores)。[1]

可是海上的風就是比陸地上強上好幾倍,這麼香的風力來源怎麼能放著不用呢?來自挪威的公司 World Wide Wind 提出了一種浮標式風電機組,省去了海底工程的麻煩。這種風電機組採用垂直軸的設計,這樣機組就不會被海風吹著跑。整個裝置可以靠著海面下的配重平衡地直立在海面上,除了電纜之外不須要任何固定措施。這大大地擴展了離岸風電的發展空間。許多最佳的風場位在離岸較遠的深海區域,我們沒辦法在這些海床上豎立巨大的水平軸風車,這時候就可以透過漂浮式構造來擴張風電的勢力範圍。
