This study conducts the first systematic literature review of climate change adaptation in aquaculture. We address three specific questions: (i) What is aquaculture adapting to? (ii) How is aquaculture adapting? and (iii) What research gaps need to...

Aquaculture is the fastest-growing farmed food sector and will soon become the primary source of fish and shellfish for human diets. In contrast to crop and livestock production, aquaculture production is derived from numerous, exceptionally diverse...

European consumers prefer wild over farmed aquatic food and consider it healthier and tastier. Consumers are increasingly paying attention to sustainability and welfare of farmed fish. Such expectations might be met by organic certification, but this...

The presence of organic pollutants such as pesticides and pharmaceuticals in the aquatic environment, and especially in regions where fish farms are installed, is a matter of major importance due to their possible risks to ecosystems and public...

Marine aquaculture is the most promising industry for ensuring future provision of seafood. Yet, the worldwide growth and expansion of this industry have been slower than expected, calling for the identification of environmentally suitable sites...

Human‐induced climate change and ocean acidification (CC‐OA) is changing the physical and biological processes occurring within the marine environment, with poorly understood implications for marine life. Within the aquaculture sector, molluskan...

Aquaculture offers great potential for providing sustainable sources of food, thus playing a key role towards achieving food security and nutrition, employment and economic development. Shellfish (mussel) aquaculture offers a great development...

As the world continues to experience problems including lack of seafood and high energy demands, this paper provides assessment for integrated multi-use offshore (MUP) platforms as a step towards exploiting open seawater in a sustainable way to...

Production of gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata) and European seabass (Dicentrarchus labrax) is the second most important aquaculture industry in the European Union in value terms. During the last 10 years, the industry has experienced a process of...

Oyster production has historically taken place in intertidal zones, and shellfish farms already occupy large extents of the French intertidal space. The expansion of French shellfish aquaculture within intertidal areas is, therefore, spatially...
