The Copernicus Marine Service contributes to the sustainable management of fishery and aquaculture farms.
SUSTAINABLE FISHERY MANAGEMENT – New sustainable strategies for fisheries are becoming possible thanks to the numerical modelling of the marine ecosystem and its food chain, from small organisms to top predators. As such, the Copernicus Marine Service products are used in modelling of fish habitats.
AQUACULTURE FARM SITING AND MANAGEMENT – The selection of appropriate sites for aquaculture farms is crucial for their long-term sustainability and they depend on many parameters. The Copernicus Marine Service hydrodynamics, ocean colour and sea surface temperature products can support this endeavor and more widely the sector.
