Chemical composition and release rate of waste discharge from an Atlantic salmon farm with an evaluation of IMTA feasibility
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013-07-25)The carbon (C), nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) compositions of salmon feed, fish and faeces were studied at a salmon farm in Badstuvika (63°31’N, 9°9’E) in central Norway. These data were used to estimate the release rates ... -
Efficacy testing of novel antifouling coatings for pen nets in aquaculture: How good are alternatives to traditional copper coatings?
(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 ... -
High host densities dilute sea lice Lepeophtheirus salmonis loads on individual Atlantic salmon, but do not reduce lice infection success
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)Host density likely plays a key role in host−parasite interactions, but empirical evidence in marine ecosystems remains limited. Classical models predict a positive relationship between host density and parasite infection ... -
Modelling how the physical scale of experimental tanks affects salmon growth performance
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018-10-01)In this study, we explored the potential of using mathematical models for studying the effects of physical scale of production units on the growth performance of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.). Atlantic salmon are typically ... -
Optical measurement of tissue perfusion changes as an alternative to electrocardiography for heart rate monitoring in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Background: Welfare challenges in salmon farming highlights the need to improve understanding of the fish’s response to its environment and rearing operations. This can be achieved by monitoring physiological responses ... -
Potential environmental risks associated with biofouling management in salmon aquaculture
(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 ...
