Summary:

With the expansion of the world aquaculture industry, there has been increasing concern over sustainability and environmental impact. This book addresses this topical issue, concentrating on marine aquaculture.

This book contains 17 chapters. Topics covered are: management of marine aquaculture: the sustainability challenge; marine mammals and aquaculture: conflicts and potential resolutions; recreational fishing and aquaculture: throwing a line into the pond; aquaculture: opportunity of threat to traditional capture fishermen; advances in marine stock enhancement: shifting emphasis to theory and accountability; aquatic polyculture and balanced ecosystem management: new paradigms for seafood production; the role of marine aquaculture facilities as habitats and ecosystems; mangroves and coastal aquaculture; environmental effects associated with marine netpen waste with emphasis on salmon farming in the Pacific Northwest; issues associated with non-indigenous species in marine aquaculture; genetic changes in marine aquaculture species and the potential for impacts on natural populations; what role does genetics play in responsible aquaculture; understanding the interaction of extractive and fed aquaculture using ecosystem modelling; shrimp farm effluents; fish meal: historical uses, production trends and future outlook for sustainable supplies; the use of wild-caught juveniles in coastal aquaculture and its application to coral reef fishes; contending with criticism: sensible responses in an age of advocacy.
