Research & development - Akvaplan-niva

Aquaculture

We conduct R&D projects for private companies and governmental agencies with focus on new aquaculture species, new and improved production technology and sustainable production regimes.

Environmental impact

Our scientist conducts studies in aquatic systems related to all aspects of pollution and ecotoxicology.

Oceanography

Akvaplan-niva has developed tools for simulating circulation and the environment in the sea and especially in coastal areas.

Climate & ecosystems

Under ecosystem research we focus on how different species, populations and stocks respond to and interact with local and large-scale climate variability. We also undertake more traditional studies of biodiversity and ecosystem function.
