Integrating Environmental Drivers and Trophic Interactions to Predict Spatial Distribution of High-Risk Marine Organisms at Nuclear Power Plant Cooling Water Intake [PDF]
Marine organisms that episodically aggregate near coastal nuclear power plant water intakes pose a substantial risk to cooling water security. Predicting the spatial distribution of such high-risk species remains challenging because their occurrence is ...
