A partly stage-structured model for the abundance of salmon lice in salmonid farms

Epidemics, 2019
The parasitic salmon louse constrains growth in the Norwegian salmon farming industry through density dependent host-parasite interaction. Hence, there is a need for insight into how increases in salmon production, varying spatial organisation of the ...

An update of the salmon louse (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) reference genome assembly

G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2022
Salmon lice have plagued the salmon farming industry and have negatively impacted salmon populations in the wild. In response, researchers have generated high density genetic maps, genome assemblies, transcriptomes, and whole-genome resequencing data to ...

THE IMPORTANCE OF TEMPERATURE IN FARMED SALMON GROWTH: REGIONAL GROWTH FUNCTIONS FOR NORWEGIAN FARMED SALMON [PDF]

Aquaculture Economics & Management, 2014
A reliable growth function is a vital part of deriving the optimal harvesting strategy and production plan for any aquaculture operation. The range of environmental and biological conditions along the Norwegian coast suggests that the growth of farmed salmon will differ from one region to another.

The Dynamics of Profitability among Salmon Farmers—A Highly Volatile and Highly Profitable Sector

Fishes, 2022
Salmon farming stands out from many other industries with its very high profitability, but it is also highly volatile. The main question is whether the profit of individual firms is stable, or whether profitable firms change from year to year.

Water scarcity- and carbon footprints of aquafeed: The case of land-based and ocean-based Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) farming in Iceland

Agricultural Water Management
The water scarcity footprint (WSF), carbon footprint, and blue and green water footprints accounting of the aquafeed used in land-based and ocean-based Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) farming in Iceland in the year 2021 were assessed through a cradle-to ...

The effect of exposure to farmed salmon on piscine orthoreovirus infection and fitness in wild Pacific salmon in British Columbia, Canada.

PLoS ONE, 2017
The disease Heart and Skeletal Muscle Inflammation (HSMI) is causing substantial economic losses to the Norwegian salmon farming industry where the causative agent, piscine orthoreovirus (PRV), is reportedly spreading from farmed to wild Atlantic salmon (

Benthic monitoring of salmon farms in Norway using foraminiferal metabarcoding

Aquaculture Environment Interactions, 2016
The rapid growth of the salmon industry necessitates the development of fast and accurate tools to assess its environmental impact. Macrobenthic monitoring is commonly used to measure the impact of organic enrichment associated with salmon farm ...

Modeling parasite dynamics on farmed salmon for precautionary conservation management of wild salmon.

PLoS ONE, 2013
Conservation management of wild fish may include fish health management in sympatric populations of domesticated fish in aquaculture. We developed a mathematical model for the population dynamics of parasitic sea lice (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) on ...
