High resolution depth profile scanning of plankton organisms—VERTILICE

MethodsX
Knowledge of the vertical migration pattern of sea lice (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) copepodites is necessary for designing efficient measures to prevent lice infestations on farmed Atlantic salmon (Salmo Salar) in sea-cages.

Parasitic sea louse infestations on wild sea trout: separating the roles of fish farms and temperature

Parasites & Vectors, 2018
Background The causal relation between parasitic sea lice on fish farms and sea lice on wild fish is a controversial subject. A specific scientific debate has been whether the statistical association between infestation pressure (IP) from fish farms and ...

Chitin synthesis in the salmon louse Lepeophtheirus salmonis

, 2021
The salmon louse Lepeophtheirus salmonis is a parasitic copepod that lives and feeds on Atlantic salmon (Salmo salmar). At present, this parasite is the number one threat to the Norwegian aquaculture. The density of salmons living together in aquaculture sea cages gives the salmon lice optimal conditions for infecting and reproducing.

Optimization of calcium oxide treatment against salmon louse (Lepeophtheirus salmonis). A controlled laboratory study

Aquaculture Reports
Salmon louse (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) infestations pose a significant challenge to the salmonid farming industry. While most conventional water-treatment protocols primarily target lice at parasitic stages once attached to the fish, preventive measures ...

Temperature-driven suitability shifts of sea lice species under climate change and the implications for salmon farming

Aquaculture Environment Interactions
Salmonids are the most valuable marine aquaculture family, worth approximately US$26.2 billion in 2022. However, the industry’s economic value is threatened by sea lice infestations, which can cause production losses and require expensive treatments to ...
