Digital models for assessing the impact of aeration processes on reservoir aquaculture

Abstract

The dissolved oxygen level in a water body is one of the problems affecting all its processes and living organisms. The article identifies the problems associated with insufficient oxygen concentration in water and affecting the ecosystem both within a water body and in the surrounding area. A system dynamics model is developed to predict such changes. The key objects and processes established through structural analysis, observation, synthesis, and mathematical statistics are at the heart of such a model. The application of simulation modeling methods to the obtained results allowed the creation of a model reflecting the dependence of parameters affecting the rate of processes and changes in their states, affecting the population of fish and other living organisms in the reservoir.
