The Kelp Cultivation Potential in Coastal and Offshore Regions of Norway

The Kelp Cultivation Potential in Coastal and Offshore Regions of Norway

We have evaluated the cultivation potential of sugar kelp (Saccharina latissima) as a function of latitude and position (near- and offshore) along the Norwegian coast using a coupled 3D hydrodynamic-biogeochemical-kelp model system (SINMOD) run for four growth seasons (2012–2016). The results are sp...
