One of the topics of the symposium is knowledge dissemination from our CMM masters program. This photo shows an artificial reef that is deployed under the cod pens to filter bio excess of the feeding remains that fall to the bottom of the sea. This project is a part of a research done by Dafna Israel, a CMM master’s student.
The symposium will be in Icelandic. All further information and schedule can be found on the Icelandic page.
