Scottish Marine and Freshwater Science Volume 3 Number 6: Development of a GIS based Aquaculture Decision Support Tool (ADST) to determine the potential benthic impacts associated with the expansion of salmon farming in Scottish sea lochs

Annex 3

The relationships between the maximum biomass at the precautionary thresholds for nutrient enrichment (ECE _pa) and benthic impact (BI _pa) by sea loch. The smallest value in each loch is the limiting factor in each sea loch ( i.e. lochs 80, 38, 85, 88, 74 and 65 were limited by benthic impact). There were zero values for BI _pa in sea lochs 7, 27, 46, 56, 57, 69, 82, 99, 102, 111 and 113.
