Effects of cnidarian biofouling on salmon gill health and development of amoebic gill disease
Bloecher, Nina; Powell, Mark; Hytterød, Sigurd; Gjessing, Mona Cecilie; Wiik-Nielsen, Jannicke; Mohammad, Saima; Hansen, Haakon; Floerl, Oliver; Gjevre, Anne Gerd (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018-07-06)This study examines the potential implications of biofouling management on the development of an infectious disease in Norwegian farmed salmon. The hydroid Ectopleura larynx frequently colonises cage nets at high densities ... -
Efficacy testing of novel antifouling coatings for pen nets in aquaculture: How good are alternatives to traditional copper coatings?
Bloecher, Nina; Floerl, Oliver (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-03-30)Biofouling is a challenge in global sea-based salmon farming. Norway's salmon-growing industry relies primarily on copper-based antifouling coatings. However, copper is an increasingly recognised environmental hazard, and ... -
Efficacy testing of novel antifouling systems for marine sensors
Bloecher, Nina; Solvang, Torfinn; Floerl, Oliver (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Marine sensors are widely employed tools for remotely providing a representation of their environment. The primary factor limiting measurement accuracy and deployment longevity is biofouling. For prevention, copper is the ... -
Potential environmental risks associated with biofouling management in salmon aquaculture
Floerl, Oliver; Sunde, Leif Magne; Blöcher, Nina (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016-07-25)The accumulation of biofouling organisms on farm infrastructure is an on-going problem for the global salmon aquaculture industry. Most salmon farmers in production regions worldwide undertake regular in situ net cleaning ... -
Towards cost‐effective biofouling management in salmon aquaculture: a strategic outlook
Bloecher, Nina; Floerl, Oliver (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-08-30)Biofouling is an ongoing challenge for marine salmon aquaculture, impacting farming operations, fish health and welfare. Current mitigation strategies employed in Norway and Scotland rely mainly on the use of antifouling ...
