Multidisciplinary modelling approaches to understand harmful algal blooms dynamics (MOHAB)
Start date: Jun 1, 2011, End date: Oct 1, 2014,
"Harmful algal blooms (HABs) cause large economic losses every year in aquaculture and fisheries worldwide, due to shellfish toxicity and mass fish mortality. Understanding HABs dynamics requires an integrated strategy that includes not only observation but also modelling. Models are essential tools toward defining the complexity of HAB events and forecasting their occurrence (e.g., bloom initiati ...

Applied simulations and Integrated modeling for the understanding of toxic and harmful algal blooms (ASIMUTH)
Start date: Dec 1, 2010, End date: Nov 30, 2013,
"Harmful algal blooms are known to periodically produce toxicity in shellfish and to kill farmed fish throughout Europe. The Atlantic coast of Europe is often affected by such blooms causing devastation to aquaculture industries due to closures of farms and large scale fish kills. The management of shellfish toxicity is well developed along the Atlantic margin in response to EU Directives, and the ...

MOBile watEr quality SENsor System (MOBESENS)
Start date: Jun 1, 2008, End date: May 31, 2011,
Management of the environment for predictable and sustainable use of natural resources is one of the great challenges of the 21st century. Although water covers most of the planet, it is becoming increasingly difficult to ensure adequate supplies of fresh, clean water for drinking, as well as, for sports and wellness activities. The demand for water resources is increasing as the population grows. ...
