NUMBER OF PAGES/APPENDICES: 302002488 (SINTEF) 56 ABSTRACT The MACROSEA project has contributed to new knowledge on production biology and technology for selected brown and red macroalgae species in Norway. Seedling quality and growth, fouling and biochemical composition during sea cultivation have been studied. Population genetics along the coast and in two fjords have been characterized. Growth models have been developed and coupled with 3D hydrodynamics-ecosystem models to estimate site-dependent biomass production, and design studies of methods and prototyping of new technology for efficient seeding, deployment and harvest have been performed.
