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

ABSTRACT Non‐medicinal approaches for controlling sea lice (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) infestations, such as freshwater (FW) treatments, have been increasingly implemented to support more sustainable parasite control in aquaculture. This study evaluated the efficacy of FW treatment against sea lice under controlled experimental conditions and assessed ...

The use of a general linear model to identify epidemiological factors affecting the abundance of chalimus stages of the sea louse (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) on Scottish salmon farms [PDF]
In this communication chalimus lice numbers in the second, third and fourth quarters of the production cycle are examined in relation to a range of prevailing risk factors using an approach based on that already taken for mobile stages (Revie et al.

ABSTRACT Mechanical wounds are a common form of skin damage in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar Linnaeus, 1758) aquaculture and can predispose fish to secondary infections. Such wounds often arise from routine farming practices, including delousing operations.

The Greenland–Scotland Ridge in a Changing Ocean: Time to Act?
ABSTRACT The Greenland–Scotland Ridge is a submarine mountain that rises up to 500 m below the sea surface and extends from the east coast of Greenland to the continental shelf of Iceland and across the Faroe Islands to Scotland. The ridge not only separates deeper ocean basins on either side, that is, the North Atlantic and Arctic oceans, but also ...

ABSTRACT Atlantic salmon (Salmo must survive the transition from river to fjord in order to migrate to northern latitudes where they feed and grow at sea. In the River Suldalslågen in southern Norway, hydropower regulated water discharge determines the timing and extent of river flows and fjord currents.

ABSTRACT In finfish aquaculture, there are several inflammatory diseases impacting productivity and animal welfare, however there are limited options available to veterinarians to treat inflammation and pain in fish. Nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are widely used in terrestrial animals raised for human consumption to treat a range of ...
