Infestations with salmon lice and subsequent management is one of the most challenging costly aspects marine salmonid aquaculture. Both handling treatment, specifically non-medicinal against cause stress physical injuries to host, Atlantic ( Salmo salar ). This in turn leads reduced appetite increased mortality. In this study, we have estimated short-term growth loss related treatments (thermal...

Marine dynamic disasters, such as storm surges and huge waves, can cause large economic human losses. The assessment of marine disasters is, thus, important, but improvements to its reliability are needed. current study improved integrated the from perspective multi-factor coupling. Using a weighted index system, disaster indicator system suitable for China’s coastal waters was established, met...

Increasing human population and reliance on aquaculture for seafood will lead to expansion of the industry in the open ocean. To guide environmentally sustainable expansion, coastal stakeholders require tools to evaluate the risks that marine aquaculture poses and to craft science-based policies and practices which safeguard marine ecosystems. We summarized current knowledge regarding dissolved...

Floating cages are the technology used for aquaculture activities. The dynamic factors of sea will affect floating cage, one factor is waves. waves cause a change in position cage that affects stability cage. needs should have balancing unit stability. model with vacuum function to perform stable when exposed This research was executed by comparing models without installed unit. each tested two...
