Funded Activity Summary

Primarily this project is needed to satisfy the regulatory requirements of the Tasmanian salmon industry regulator, the EPA. Currently there is no calibrated local scale model that is suitable to provide connectivity information of the region in question. This proposal aims to develop a nested suite that may provide environmental information to assist in satisfying the salmon farming requirements in the region.

Objectives:
1. A calibrated model is developed, where the model skill is known and those connectivity characteristics can be bounded by levels of confidence.
