Sea lice and salmon population dynamics: effects of exposure time for migratory fish [PDF]
The ecological impact of parasite transmission from fish farms is probably mediated by the migration of wild fishes, which determines the period of exposure to parasites. For Pacific salmon and the parasitic sea louse, Lepeophtheirus salmonis , analysis of the exposure period may resolve conflicting observations of ...

Sea lice removal by cleaner fish in salmon aquaculture: a review of the evidence base
Stocking cleaner fish to control sea lice infestations in Atlantic salmon farms is widespread and is viewed as a salmon welfare-friendly alternative to current delousing control treatments.

Individual fish tank arrays in studies of Lepeophtheirus salmonis and lice loss variability [PDF]
In studies of the salmon louse Lepeophtheirus salmonis (Krøyer, 1837), experimental design is complicated by a highly variable and unpredictable lice loss among common experimental tanks and a substantial rate of host transfer within tanks. When fish hosting L. salmonis are maintained in individual tanks, unspecific effects such as host transfer, louse

Salmon lice dispersion in a northern Norwegian fjord system and the impact of vertical movements
The abundance and distribution of salmon lice Lepeophtheirus salmons originating from fish farms in a northern Norwegian fjord during the summer of 2010 was investigated by means of a numerical model, underpinned by field observations.

Sea lice (Copepoda: Caligidae) parasitic on fishes reported from the Neotropical region [PDF]
The Caligidae, also known as sea lice, is a family of parasitic copepods of fish that consists of 31 genera and more than 450 species, some of which have been deleterious to cultured fish. The goal of this paper was to structure a list of sea lice species known from the Neotropical region based on information from published records.
