Research Opportunity
Development of optical sensors and instrumentation to implement in aquatic systems
Work description
Aquaculture intensification and the high demand for energy production have raised environmental concerns. It is imperative to understand the impact of those activities on both human and planet life. To secure the long-term viability of both sectors, it is imperative to enhance current technologies and management strategies.
This scholarship will be carried out within the scope of the European project INNOAQUA, which aims to develop and implement optical technology in an industrial context for the evaluation of several water parameters.
