  • An integrated epidemiological-economic model of sea lice control in aquaculture: A system dynamics approach

    Creator:
    Hamza, Kanar
    Abstract:
    Different methodologies have been used in modeling the epidemiology and economics of aquaculture diseases, including input-output models, benefit-cost analysis, linear programming, simple spreadsheetbased models, compartment models based on differential equations, and spatial models. Despite the advantages that these models provide, there is a need to develop a more integrated approach...
