Polybridge Season 3: Ecosystem effects of polychaete-assisted sand filtersTools Palmer, P. J., Wang, S., Mann, D. and Nash, W. J. (2018) Polybridge Season 3: Ecosystem effects of polychaete-assisted sand filters. Technical Report. Queensland Government, Brisbane.
AbstractThis study is an extension of research undertaken in the first two seasons of the Polybridge Project (2013-2016: for results see Palmer et al., 2016), which sought to investigate operational aspects of polychaete-assisted sand filters (PASF) when deployed for scaled prawn farm recirculation at the Bribie Island Research Centre (BIRC). The aims of the present work were to assess its functionality with increased organic loading rates provided by higher prawn stocking densities than previously trialled, and to assess the ecological effects on this integrated farming system when using PASF to initially fill ponds for a range of biosecurity purposes.
