Measuring and modelling the dispersal of salmon farm organic waste over sandy sediments
Fish farm waste dispersal models are widely used but have only been directly validated to a limited extent. Two shallow (<20 m) Atlantic salmon farms (Bay of Meil and Quanterness) in Orkney, Scotland were studied. Bay of Meil has peak near-bed currents of 9.7 cm s-1 whereas Quanterness has flows...
