Salmon farming and the environment

open access: yesAquaculture Research, 1994
. The growth of the aquaculture industry and the general awareness of the environment have increased the concern of’ the environmental impact from aquaculture. As fish farms are open systems, all material that is not harvested as fish is released to the environment. The most important effluents are solid particles like feed and faeces, dissolved

First record of experimentally induced salmon gill poxvirus disease (SGPVD) in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.)

open access: yesVeterinary Research, 2020
Salmon gill poxvirus (SGPV) infection is a common denominator in many cases of complex gill disease in the Norwegian salmon farming industry and may, as a single agent infection, result in salmon poxvirus disease (SGPVD).

Can Farmed and Wild Salmon Coexist?

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2008
When the cod industry off Canada's eastern shore collapsed in 1992, industrial fisheries could no longer ignore biologists' warnings that the ocean would not sustain unlimited exploitation of its fish stocks. But a nearly 5-fold increase in global marine catch over four decades had already taken its toll, placing the persistence of scores of the sea's ...

Effect of ectoparasite infestation density and life‑history stages on the swimming performance of Atlantic salmon Salmo salar

open access: yesAquaculture Environment Interactions, 2016
To overcome sustainability obstacles and improve operations, the Atlantic salmon farming industry is testing novel approaches to production. Redistributing farm sites to offshore locations is one such solution; however, tolerance to high-current velocity

Hypoxia in Atlantic salmon aquaculture: Current understanding and the way forward toward mitigation and predictive management

open access: yesAquaculture Reports
Hypoxia is an increasing challenge for Atlantic salmon aquaculture as climate-driven warming, stratification, harmful algal blooms, and changing coastal oxygen dynamics interact with high biomass production to reduce dissolved oxygen availability.

Oxidative Stress Response of Liver Cell Culture in Atlantic Salmon Challenged Under Two Antibiotics: Oxytetracycline and Florfenicol

open access: yesToxics
Aquaculture is currently the fastest-growing sector in animal production, with an average annual growth rate of 7.5% since 1970. In Chile, the industry is largely driven by salmonid farming, with Salmo salar (Atlantic salmon) accounting for over 65% of ...
