Um ritgerðina:
Long-line mussel farming is a worldwide growing industry. In Denmark mussel production has traditionally been based on fishery of wild mussel stock, but during the last 5 years about 20 suspended long-line mussel farms have been established in Limfjorden. This cultivation form gives some environmental and commercial advantages. However, as mussel farms increase sedimentation of organic waste they also have potential negative impacts on the surrounding environment. The dissertation describes the environmental impacts in the water column and in the sediment with emphasis on different mineralization pathways.
