A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

The continued expansion of aquaculture – in a wide range of environments and of a growing number of species has lead to increasing demands on aquatic resources. These demands vary with the culture species, the culture method and the environmental and ecological setting. While there are many examples of efforts to mitigate detrimental environmental effects, the environment remains the ultimate constraint on the future sustainable development of this maturing industry.

The relationships between the activities of aquaculture and the environment are therefore of economic importance as well as of scientific interest and, for these reasons, a large international research community has developed over the past decade. In this volume, the resultant research is synthesised and critically reviewed, providing a source of reference to the most important recent developments at research and professional level. The authors are internationally recognised authorities who have made significant contributions to their respective research areas.

The first part of the volume is organised in terms of the major culture types. This is followed by chapters of general relevance to aquaculture.

The volume is designed to complement Biology of Farmed Fish (eds K D Black/A D Pickering), also published in this series.

It is directed at fish biologists, shellfish biologists and environmental scientists working in the academic, governmental and industrial sectors.
