چکیده

This study aims to characterize salmonid manures and to determine their potential use in agricultural soils. Sampling was carried out below salmon and trout cages in farms located in lakes and in the sea in the South of Chile during 2002-2003. Manure was analyzed for macronutrients, micronutrients and heavy metals. Results showed a high variability between samples and differences between sea and lake manure. Dry matter contents were low averaging c. 12-15%. Manures showed low OM contents with values <c. 15% and a neutral pH (c. 7.0). Both manures had low total N contents with values of <0.9%, more than 75% of which was in the organic form. Lake manure showed high contents of P (1.56%), Ca (3.89%), Fe (27,948 ppm), Mn (446 ppm), Al (31,789 ppm), As (5.13 ppm), Cd (1.04 ppm), Cr (18.8 ppm), Ni (12.3 ppm), Pb (3.5 ppm) and Zn (393 ppm). Sea manure had high contents of Mg (1.65% ppm), K (0.63%), Na (11.8%) and Cu (89 ppm). Salmonid manure had low nutrients and heavy metal contents and a potential use in agricultural soils, which could reduce the risks of water pollution on water from fish farming.

The impact assessment of cage aquaculture on benthic communities along the south eastern Black Sea

The present study was conducted to examine the impact of cage aquaculture on benthic communities in coastal areas (depth 25 to 50 m) from fish farming operations located along the southeastern Black Sea (Ordu-Perşembe, Trabzon-Yomra and Rize central). Sampling was conducted seasonally from April 2007 to 2009. Sediment samples were taken using Ekman Grab (box core- 0.04 m2). Temperature, salinit...

The aim of this study was to investigate the interaction between fish cage culture and sediment bacterial contamination in the area southern of Caspian Sea. For this purpose, sampling of sediment was collected in Mazandaran province (Nowshahr region) during the rainbow trout farming period at different distances (shadow, 200 and 1000 m from the cage) in 2017-2018. The results showed that in the...

This study has been in order to investigate the effects of cage culture in the south of the Caspian Sea, Kelarabad. Sampling was in three direction of cages, East, West and South (the coast of Caspian Sea). For this purpose, four stations on each side of the cages was considered in terms of distance, the shadow (5 meters) to a distance of 1000 meters cages (control). Grain size analysis shows, ...

Investigation of sediment chemistry parameters around the fish cage culture sites in the southern part of the Caspian Sea (Nowshahr region)

The establishment of aquaculture cages in the right place will be associated with the least adverse effects on the ecosystem, so the quality of sediment is very important in monitoring fish cages farming. The aim of this study was to investigate the sediments chemistry parameters around fish cage culture in the southern of Caspian Sea (Nowshahr region). Sampling was conducted in four stages of ...
