1.     The fish farm emits particular organic matter in the forms of wasted food and faeces  This matter will be spread by the time varying current flushing the farm  The  dispersion model used in MOM is described in the Appendix to the report listed below  This report also describes a model for oxygen supply to the bottom  a  prerequisite for the respiration of benthic animals  The oxygen transport towards the bottom  which depends on the current regime in the bottom layer  is computed  by MOM  MOM computes how great the supply of organic matter to the bottom may be without killing the benthic animals     II  Stigebrandt  A   amp  J  Aure  Model for critical organic loading under fish farms  Fisken  amp  Havet No  26     1995   Appendix   In Norwegian   Abstract and Figure  Captions in English     3 3 Water quality model plus the MOM software as an entity    The fish in the cages must have sufficiently high oxygen concentrations and sufficiently low NH3 or UIA  unionised ammonium  concentrations  From a given lowest  current speed in the surface layer  Data Card 2   MOM computes maximum fish biomass and fish production for each month under the prerequisite of good oxygen  and ammonium conditions in the cages  The critical concentrations of oxygen and UIA are given in Data Card 2  see chapter 2 above  These computations are    described in the paper below  That paper also gives a summary of many processes and models used in the MOM software     II  Stigebrandt  A   Aure  J   Erv
