Fish cage waste dispersal in Jordan Bay / by Adam Drozdowski, Brent Law and Fred Page.: Fs97-6/3269E-PDF

"Waste dispersal from a fin-fish aquaculture facility in Jordan Bay N.S. was simulated using the benthic boundary layer transport model (BBLT). The currents, waves and bottom stress were measured during the fall of 2014 and used as inputs. Four waste classes were considered: fines, flocs, fecal waste and feed pellets, and modelled with a 46 day continuous release scenario"--Abstract, p. v.
