Floating treatment islands in series along a channel: The impact of island spacing on the velocity field and estimated mass removal.

Floating treatment islands (FTIs) consist of emergent vegetation grown on floating structures. The submerged roots beneath the island and the biofilm they support filter nutrients and particulates from water passing through the roots. FTIs are often deployed in series within a channel, but an optimu...
