The contribution of aquatic animal protein to the global, animal-source protein supply and the relative importance of aquaculture to capture fisheries in supplying this protein is relevant in assessments and decisions related to the future of aquatic...

A modelling tool was implemented in an Eastern Mediterranean Allocated Zone for Aquaculture (AZA) (Vourlias Bay, Greece) to examine the fate of seabass/seabream aquaculture wastes from multiple farms and assess their potential impacts on the...

This paper aims to provide an overview of the capabilities of unmanned systems to monitor and manage aquaculture farms that support precision aquaculture using the Internet of Things. The locations of aquaculture farms are diverse, which is a big...

The investigation of wave climate is of primary concern for the successful implementation of offshore aquaculture systems, as waves can cause significant loads on them. Up until now, site selection and design (or selection) of offshore cage system...

Climate change is an inevitable event that obstructs the output of aquaculture farms and culture-based fisheries in open waters. It poses a serious threat to global food security, altering biodiversity, ecosystems, and global fish output by...

Within the last few decades, advances in genetic technologies have created powerful and efficient tools for fisheries stock identification, genetic improvement and domestication of aquaculture species and characterization of changes in aquatic life...

In this article, the availability and reliability of a remote video monitoring system for offshore sea farming plants are studied and tested in laboratory. The scope of the system is to ensure a video surveillance infrastructure so to supervise...

The warming of the Mediterranean Sea surface is currently estimated to have been 0.4°C per decade for the period 1985-2006, and the increase in water temperature may have negatively affected marine aquaculture, e.g. by decreasing productivity...

This study describes the patterns of mortality and investigates the sources of variation in mortality during the marine phase of commercial salmon farming. The study included daily mortality records from stocking to harvest of 21 million salmon from...
