Abstract:
Suspension-feeding bivalves produce biodeposits (faeces and pseudofaeces) that have much higher sinking velocities than their constituent particles. Consequently they cause sedimentation of material that might otherwise not be deposited. The benthic remineralisation of biodeposits increases sediment oxygen demand and nutrient regeneration, thus enhancing the benthic-pelagic coupling of nearshore ecosystems. In New Zealand the mussel Perna canaliculus has a high natural abundance and is also intensively cultured. This thesis examines the dispersal and remineralisation characteristics of mussel

Ricefield based fish seed production (RBFSP) in irrigated spring (boro) ricefields after initial introductions by external promoters has spread among farmers in parts of Northwest Bangladesh. This approach to producing juvenile fish, rather than by specialised geographically clustered hatchery and nursery enterprises, has been recognised as a strategy for decentralised production that makes large high quality seed available locally and supports food fish production. RBFSP has been promoted by the international NGO CARE as part of a process to improve rice-based livelihoods of farming household

Abstract:
Salmon aquaculture can be a potential solution to bridge the gap between declining capture fisheries and increasing seafood demand. However, the environmental impacts it creates have generated criticism. The overall objectives of this dissertation are to examine the economic consequences of environmental issues associated with salmon aquaculture, and to explore policy implications and recommendations for reducing environmental impacts. These objectives are addressed in five main analyses. The growth of salmon aquaculture is analyzed based on farmed salmon production in the four leadin

The dynamics of demersal fish species assemblages and stocks on the continental shelf of Ghana, West Africa were investigated using data from trawl surveys conducted between 1963 and 1990, and in relation to marine environmental and nearshore forcing factors.

Classification and ordination methods were used to identify fish assemblages and to identify factors that determine assemblage formation and dynamics.

Predator populations can have significant impacts on prey recruitment success and prey population dynamics through consumption. Young, inexperienced prey are often most vulnerable to predation due to their small size and limited evasion capabilities. to reduce the risk of predation, new recruits and young juveniles typically settle in structured nursery habitats, such as seagrass beds, which promote higher survival by acting as refuges from predators. Thus, successful recruitment to the adult portion of the population is often dependent on the availability of suitable nursery habitat. In this

De nombreux pays, à des degrés variés, ont enregistré des augmentations de leurs productions aquacoles. Ce développement s'est accompagné d'une augmentation des surfaces terrestres et marines occupées par les différentes formes d'aquaculture : marine, saumâtre ou dulcicole. Parmi ces dernières, c'est l'aquaculture saumâtre en étangs qui a constitué notre objet d'étude, et plus particulièrement celle pratiquée dans l'espace intertropical. A partir de deux études de cas, aux Philippines (Pampan

Abstract:
Aquaculture has great potential to help supply the nutritional needs of a growing population. To date, however, the benefits that aquaculture can have, have largely been overshadowed by the environmental degradation some segments of the industry have caused. The following body of work describes my efforts to help reduce the environmental impacts of aquaculture. By integrating aquaculture production into traditional agriculture, the impact of farming on already limited water resources and the reliance on chemical fertilizers can be reduced. Recent expansion of the aquaculture industry in Arizon

A aquacultura pode gerar considerável impacto ambiental pelo alto nível de N e P produzido. Este fato reflete a necessidade de mais estudos sobre a remoção daqueles nutrientes.O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar o uso de Azolla filiculoides na remoção de N e P de efluentes com diferentes densidades de coberturas e períodos de tempo, com e sem sedimentação prévia. Ambos os trabalhos foram desenvolvidos no Setor de Aquacultura da UFRGS.A planta Azolla filiculoides foi distribuída em proporções de 0% (controle), 25%,50% e 75% da superfície das caixas plásticas.

Abstract:
One of the main environmental impacts of salmon aquaculture activities in the Bay of Fundy is the alteration of sediment chemistry as a result of the large amount of organic waste that accumulates below fish pens. To investigate these impacts, vertical profiles of delta13C, delta 15N, Corg, Corg:Ntot, FeHC1 , MnHCl, Ptot, PHCl, SO4 2-, AVS, Hgtot, and Hgpyrite in sediment cores collected throughout the bay were acquired. These profiles were then used to identify tracers of aquaculture activities and their impact on the redox zonation of the sediment. In addition, representative samples

Abstract:
Virginia is the east coast's largest producer of eastern oysters and produces more than any other state. As the industry grows to meet increasing demand, more conflicts have arisen with other resource users, especially waterfront property owners. Some landowners claim oysters impact recreational and aesthetic uses of their property, therefore lowering the value of the home. Using a hedonic property value model, this study examines the effect of oyster aquaculture on waterfront properties by using 2,245 property sales from 16 counties and independent cities and information on aquaculture activi
