New article on mussel farming as nutrient mitigation
A new scientific paper has been published by some of the members of the SUBMARINER Network Mussels Working Group: 'A Spatial Model for Nutrient Mitigation Potential of Blue Mussel Farms in the Western Baltic Sea' (OPTIMUS, 2020)
Highlights:
-
A new modular spatial model for mussel mitigation farms is developed and presented
-
The model is flexible with respect to different farm setups and harvest times
-
Variability, uncertainty, food limitation and required hydrodynamics are considered
-
The model can become important for implementing coastal and marine policies.
