Hazards

Biological

The aim of this innovation project is to develop a methodology for predicting jellyfish blooms and tracking seaweed debris using remote-sensing products before they reach the power plant, preventing plant shutdowns and cutting costs. The habitat modelling and remote sensing techniques will allow the project partner to have a more pro-active approach to these events and reduce the cost of ingress events.
