The sea has a vast biological diversity of resources. Department of marine resources Technology execute biology- and technology-based research projects for the utilization of marine resources. We have mathematical models for the spreading of lice in sea, we grow seaweed and research on how we can develop tomorrow's solutions through integrated aquaculture.
03.04.2013 Researchers have recently succeeded in doubling survival rates among lobster larvae under farmed conditions. This could boost populations of a species threatened in the wild.
13.02.2013 Microalgae are a renewable resource that is central to marine food production, and microalgae should also be considered to a much larger extent in terrestrial production such...
14.12.2012 The potential for increased value creation in Norwegian biomarine industry is huge. In a new analysis says a task force appointed by the two science academies NTVA and DKNVS...
17.10.2012 In order to reduce our reliance on fossil fuels, we need renewable feedstocks – seaweed represents one such alternative biomass source that could make a difference on a global...
09.01.2012 A small creature from the animal kingdom has become an expensive neighbor for fish farmers. Now researchers will make it hot for the small - thing-without using toxic...

The aquaculture industry will experience a lack of fish oil for feed production, and there is a need for alternative EPA and DHA sources. Marine microalgae can be a source of marine oils...
Biomass measurement of plankton is a time consuming, but critical component in order to maintain a stable, controlled culture. Often solved manually and off-line, the task includes time...
SINMOD is a nested 3D model system that couples physical and biological processes in the ocean. It has been under continuous development and use for over 25 years.
The project is a collaboration between several Norwegian and international research institutions and cod fish farmers. The goal is to identify chemical and microbiological characteristics...
The project aims to improve environmental conditions in connection with the spawning and hatching of wrasse eggs, using multiple anti-fouling coatings on spawning mats.
