Case Study
Case Study 5: Uncertainty in ecological responses to water quality control measures at the river basin scale.
QUESTOR modelling shows that all the mitigation methods applied can reduce the amount of Chlorophyll-a predicted to occur in the river. The extent of the reduction is different depending on the data used to drive the QUESTOR model. The effect of increasing the shading...
