Sea‐Cage Aquaculture, Sea Lice, and Declines of Wild Fish
Conservation Biology, 2009Abstract: A sea cage, sometimes referred to as a net pen, is an enclosure designed to prevent farm fish from escaping and to protect them from large predators, while allowing a free flow of water through the cage to carry away waste.

Ecology of sea lice parasitic on farmed and wild fish
Trends in Parasitology, 2006Sea lice, especially Lepeophtheirus salmonis and Caligus spp., have the greatest economic impact of any parasite in salmonid fish farming and are also a threat to wild salmonids. Here, I review how the biology and ecology of various louse and host species influence their pathogenicity and epidemiology.

Skirts on salmon production cages reduced salmon lice infestations without affecting fish welfare
Aquaculture, 2018Abstract Blocking infective salmon lice larvae, that typically aggregate near the surface, from entering sea cages has become a widely-adopted preventive strategy in salmon aquaculture. The most prevalent shielding technique is fitting a skirt around the upper part of the cage.

Fish immune responses to parasitic copepod (namely sea lice) infection
Developmental & Comparative Immunology, 2014Parasitic copepods, in particular sea lice, have considerable impacts upon global freshwater and marine fisheries, with major economic consequences recognized primarily in aquaculture. Sea lice have been a contentious issue with regards to interactions between farmed and wild populations of fish, in particular salmonids, and their potential for ...

Sea lice, sockeye salmon, and foraging competition: lousy fish are lousy competitors
Canadian Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences, 2015Pathogens threaten wildlife globally, but these impacts are not restricted to direct mortality from disease. For fish, which experience periods of extremely high mortality during their early life history, infections may primarily influence population dynamics and conservation through indirect effects on ecological processes such as competition and ...
