Aquaculture and Mariculture

Types of aquaculture

  • 1/4 bivalves [1]
  • 1/4 seaweed and algae [1]
    • Largely produced for chemicals [1]
  • 1/2 fish [1]
    • salmon
      • largest market value produced [1]
    • shrimp

Potential Mitigation of Over-fishing

  • Collection of juvenile from wild or incubating in a hatchery
    • Rate of replenishment needs to be sustainable for the ecosystem that the juveniles are collected from [2]

Impacts on Coral

  • Current common fishing practice in Indo-Pacific if dropping cyanide in water to stun fish- having disastrous effects on coral [2]
  • Coral reefs are used to provide an ecosystem for aquaculture farming. [3]
    • Cage Culture [4]
    • Restocking and Reseeding[4]
    • Artificial Habitat Development[4]

Problems

Pollution

  • Increased pollution along coast from concentration of aquacultures [2]
