Aquaculture Environment Interactions, 2020 Over the last 2 decades, cleaner fishes have been employed to remove external sea lice parasites from Atlantic salmon Salmo salar in sea cages. Norway, Scotland, Ireland, and the Faroe Islands combined now use ~60 million cleaner fish per year.

Aquaculture Environment Interactions, 2021 Sea lice are one of the most economically costly and ecologically concerning problems facing the salmon farming industry. Here, we validated a coupled biological and physical model that simulated sea lice larvae dispersal from salmon farms in the ...

Using state-space models to predict the abundance of juvenile and adult sea lice on Atlantic salmon
Epidemics, 2018 Sea lice are marine parasites affecting salmon farms, and are considered one of the most costly pests of the salmon aquaculture industry. Infestations of sea lice on farms significantly increase opportunities for the parasite to spread in the surrounding

Negative association of sea lice from fish farms on recreational fishing catches of Atlantic salmon
Journal of Applied EcologyThe question of whether and to what extent sea‐louse (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) infestations from salmon farms influence wild Atlantic salmon survival has been subject to sustained scientific debate and political controversy.

Personality profiling may help select better cleaner fish for sea-lice control in salmon farming
bioRxiv, 2021 Lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) are increasingly being used as cleaner fish to control parasitic sea-lice in salmon farming, but cleaning rates are very variable and not all individuals eat sea-lice, which increases the risk of emaciation and has ethical ...

A model for sea lice (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) dynamics in a seasonally changing environment
Epidemics, 2016 Sea lice (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) are a significant source of monetary losses on salmon farms. Sea lice exhibit temperature-dependent development rates and salinity-dependent mortality, but to date no deterministic models have incorporated these ...

Coping styles in farmed fish: consequences for aquaculture [PDF]
, 2017 Individual differences in physiological and behavioural responses to stressors are increasingly recognised as adaptive variation and thus raw material for evolution and fish farming improvements including selective breeding. Such individual variation has

Effects of salmon lice Lepeophtheirus salmonis on wild sea trout Salmo trutta—a literature review
Aquaculture Environment Interactions, 2015 Salmon farming increases the abundance of salmon lice, which are ectoparasites of salmonids in the sea. Here we review the current knowledge on the effects of salmon lice on wild sea trout. Salmon lice feed on host mucus, skin and muscle, and infestation

Sea lice infestation level alters salmon swimming depth in sea-cages [PDF]
Aquaculture Environment Interactions, 2016 Host-parasite systems are often characterised by a co-evolutionary arms race, with avoidance behaviour being the first line of defence for hosts. In aquatic ecosystems, the rapid rise of fish farming has elevated host abundance, altering the context of host-parasite interactions.
