Towards Environmental Sustainability in Marine Finfish Aquaculture

چکیده
Aquaculture is one of the fastest growing food production sectors and has great potential for security livelihoods. However, it generates concerning consequences environment, including chemical biological pollution, disease outbreaks, unsustainable feeds competition coastal space. Recent investigations are focusing on sustainable techniques (e.g., polyculture, offshore facilities) to improve relationship between industry, environment society. This review provides an overview main factors ecological concern within marine finfish aquaculture, their interactions with highlights alternatives that currently in use or development. Adequate environmental monitoring location farms, reduction exploitation wastes chemicals being used crucial ensure growth continuity aquaculture production.

Spatial modeling of environmental vulnerability of marine finfish aquaculture using GIS-based neuro-fuzzy techniques.
Combining GIS with neuro-fuzzy modeling has the advantage that expert scientific knowledge in coastal aquaculture activities can be incorporated into a geospatial model to classify areas particularly vulnerable to pollutants. Data on the physical environment and its suitability for aquaculture in an Irish fjard, which is host to a number of different aquaculture activities, were derived from a ...
متن کاملMonitoring environmental effects of marine fish aquaculture
As mariculture production increases in both northern and southern Europe its conflict with other users of the marine environment, for space and other environmental services, becomes ever greater. Implications of these increases and conflicts require that careful environmental management of aquaculture practices be considered, which rely heavily on the process of monitoring. Monitoring studies f...
متن کاملMechanisms of antimicrobial resistance in finfish aquaculture environments
Consumer demand for affordable fish drives the ever-growing global aquaculture industry. The intensification and expansion of culture conditions in the production of several finfish species has been coupled with an increase in bacterial fish disease and the need for treatment with antimicrobials. Understanding the molecular mechanisms of antimicrobial resistance prevalent in aquaculture environ...
متن کاملGenomics and Genome Sequencing: Benefits for Finfish Aquaculture
The central dogma of molecular biology states that DNA is transcribed to RNA, which is translated into proteins (Crick, 1970), the molecules that facilitate all biological functions. A genome comprises all of an organism’s DNA, or hereditary information. The field of genomics is the study of whole genomes. Genomics has been defined as “a branch of biotechnology concerned with applying the techn...
متن کاملGuiding Sustainable Marine Aquaculture
shores. Aquaculture—the farming of fish, shellfish, or aquatic plants—has grown rapidly over the past several decades, and that growth is accelerating. Today, some 4,000 aquaculture enterprises in the United States, most of them small to mid-size, supply Americans with Atlantic salmon, hard clams, oysters, shrimp, and nearly all the catfish and trout we eat. As the industry matures, it holds bo...
