HAVBRUKS-Havbruk - en næring i vekst

Novel narrow bandwidth lighting technology in cod farming and its impact on performance from early stages to adult fish.

The Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) is historically one of the most economically significant fish species in the Northern Atlantic. However, due to extensive exploitation in the last century, the numerous wild stocks are at historically low levels, the specie s itself being classified as vulnerable t...

Interactions between wild and farmed Atlantic cod: non-lethal impacts of escapees on wild populations

Cod is a new target species for aquaculture in the north Atlantic. With increasing numbers of farmed cod kept in sea-pens in coastal areas it is necessary to address the potential impacts of cod aquaculture on the local environment. Of particular concern is the effect of cod that escape from net-...
