Study of water quality in a recirculating aquaculture system for environmental sustainability and fish welfare

(Corresponding) Almeida D., Magalhães C., Silva E., Blanquet I., Mucha A.
Topic: 
Water and wastewater reuse
Recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) are a promising technology of fish production to reduce aquaculture environmental impact. Water recirculation relies on the stability of physical, chemical and biological processes to increase biosecurity. Although, disruptions in RAS systems can cause fish...Read more

Assessment of surface water quality on an oil extraction area in Albania

Zela G., Malltezi J., Demiraj E., Zela E., Sulce S., (Corresponding) Bani A.
Topic: 
Environmental pollution
Oil extraction activities in Albania are considered as highly polluting for surface waters, but more for the amount of direct spills in riverine waters. The aim of this study was to assess the surface water quality for a period of 5 years (2014-2018) in four seasons based on different physico-...Read more

Insights gained from stormwater e-monitoring in Viimsi, Estonia

(Corresponding) Suits K., Rajarao G., Kändler N., Vassiljev A., Annus I.
Topic: 
IoT-based environmental monitoring
The Baltic Sea is at risk from urban societies' diffuse pollution, which includes harmful substances, nutrients, and marine debris. Stormwater, the primary means by which these pollutants are transported, is typically evaluated through the collection and analysis of grab samples, which show...Read more
