A 3-dimensional hydrodynamic-ecological model system (SINMOD) was used to estimate the full-scale cultivation potential of the brown alga Saccharina latissima in integrated multi-trophic aquaculture (IMTA) with Atlantic salmon Salmo salar. A previously developed model for the frond size and composit...
