Latin American Journal of Aquatic Research, 2021 Experiments were carried out to study the effects of ammonia and nitrite on food consumption of Macrobrachium amazonicum postlarvae. Postlarvae (average weight of 0.0625 g) were exposed during 21 days to four concentrations of total ammonia (0, 1.05, 2.1 and 4.2 mg. NH3+NH4+ L-1) and four concentrations of nitrite (0, 0.075, 0.15 and 0.30 mg N-NO2- L-1)

Climate Change Will Enhance Hypercapnic Hypoxia Threatening Mangrove Habitats
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 4, 28 February 2026.Abstract Mangroves host many marine species and support fisheries in developing (sub)tropical countries. The suitability of mangrove habitats depends strongly thier the water chemistry. Here, we show how global warming and rising atmospheric CO2 will reduce dissolved oxygen and increase CO2 in mangrove waters.

Spread of Amazonian Freshwater Fishes Beyond Their Native Ranges
Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 1, Page 56-67, January 2026.ABSTRACT The spread and establishment of Amazonian species outside their native ranges through activities such as sport fishing, aquaculture, and the ornamental fish industry may lead to ecological changes in recipient ecosystems. We investigated the global distribution of Amazonian freshwater fish (AFF) and conducted a case study in the upper Paraná ...

Effect of Water Exchange and Mechanical Aeration on Grow‐out of the Amazon River Prawn in Ponds [PDF]
Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, 2013 AbstractExchange and aeration of pond water are common practices in semi‐intensive freshwater prawn culture, but there is lack of scientifically based information on the results. We evaluated the effects of water flow through the ponds and mechanical aeration in semi‐intensive cultures of Macrobrachium amazonicum.
