Aquaponics Literature Review Spreadsheet Submission Sheet
Please check the spreadsheet to ensure the paper you are submitting has not already been completed. Please answer all questions. Put "not specified" if the information in the question is not found in the publication. If the units used in the publication differ from the units listed in the question, make sure to list the publication's units in brackets beside your answer (e.g. '77 (deg F)' if a temperature was listed in Fahrenheit).
