Modeling of waste dispersal associated with marine aquaculture production
FSI Stanford, FSE Project (Completed)Ongoing
Researchers

The loss of organic and inorganic wastes from net-pen aquaculture production is now a well-recognized environmental problem, but there remains little scientific understanding of the true nature of waste dispersal in marine environments, and no way to systematically predict or track where wastes might go. This project, led by engineers and hydrological modelers, will assess the dispersal and fate of wastes emanating from open net-pens in marine environment through the development of fluid dynamic models.
