PillayThe second edition of this wellreceivedbook brings together anddiscusses the availableinformation on theenvironmental aspects of variousaquaculture systems, providing aTEXTBOOKvaluable aid to the preparation of environmental impactassessments of aquaculture projects and shows howpotential environmental problems can be reduced ormitigated by sound management.2003, 256 PAGES, HARDBACK, ILLUSTRATED, 1405101679,978140510677AquacultureBiosecurityPrevention, Controland Eradication ofAquatic Animal DiseaseDavid Scarfe, Cheng-ShengLee & Patricia O’BryenPUBLISHED IN COOPERATION WITHTHE WORLD AQUACULTURE SOCIETY****Aquaculture biosecurity programsNEW ****addressing aquatic animal pathogens and diseases havebecome an important focus for the aquacultureindustry. Disease outbreaks have threatened profitableand viable aquaculture operations throughout theworld. Information exchange between leading expertsin different countries will increase success incombating infectious diseases.Key representatives of international, regional andnational organizations have presented their views ofthis important issue as part of a workshop at theWorld Aquaculture Society Triennial Conference2004. The chapters of this book cover the wealth ofexperience from the varied perspectives of these expertson using biosecurity measures to take the offensiveagainst the spread of diseases and parasites.2006, 188 PAGES, HARDBACK, 0813805392, 9780813805399Aquaculture EngineeringOdd-Ivar Lekang**** NEW ****Worldwide, aquaculture has increased at an average of9.2% per year for the past 30 years, compared withonly a 2.8% per year increase for terrestrial animalfarming. Production from fish (and shellfish and algae)farms now comprises 30% of the total of the World’sfood from our waters and this growth is predicted tocontinue until at least 2025.Aquaculture engineering is a key area for all aquaticproduction facilities and this comprehensive bookcovers all the main aspects of aquaculture engineeringwith chapters covering water transport and treatment,production units (e.g. tanks and cages), feedingsystems, fish transport and grading, egg handling,instrumentation and monitoring, slaughtering,cleaning and waste handling, construction and design,planning and quality control.2006, 352 PAGES, HARDBACK, ILLUSTRATED, 1405126108,9781405126106The AquacultureMarketingHandbookCarole Engle & KwamenaQuagrainieThe diversity andidiosyncrasies of theaquaculture and seafoodmarkets call for understandinginformation that is unique to these **** NEW ****markets. Presenting fundamental principles ofmarketing and economics from a user-friendly, how-toperspective The Aquaculture Marketing Handbookprovides the reader with a broad base of informationregarding aquaculture economics, markets andmarketing. In addition, this volume also contains anextensive annotated bibliography and webliographythat provide descriptions to key additional sources ofinformation.Written by authors with vast international aquaculturemarketing experience, The Aquaculture MarketingHandbook is an important introduction and referencetool for those interested in aquaculture, those new tothe professional field, and even the most experiencedaquaculture professional.2006, 320 PAGES, PAPERBACK, ILLUSTRATED, 0813816041,9780813816043Aquaculture-based FisheriesKai LorenzenIN PREPARATIONAquaculture-based fisheries are fisheries based on theregular stocking of cultured organisms into natural ormodified aquatic ecosystems, and are complex resourcesystems at the interface of capture fisheries andaquaculture. Operating for finfish, molluscs andcrustaceans in inland and coastal waters, aquaculturebasedfisheries represent a significant “niche” form ofaquatic resource use.This book aims to provide a comprehensive andintegrated treatment of aquaculture-based fisheriessystems. It is written primarily for scientists andprofessionals involved in the development andmanagement of culture-based fisheries while the integratedand comparative treatment of fisheries and aquacultureaspects will also appeal to other scientists and students.2007, 352 PAGES, HARDBACK, ILLUSTRATED, 0852382901,9780852382905To join our FREE e-mail alerting service, andreceive journal tables of contents and / or newsof the latest books in your field, please go towww.blackwellfish.com and click on‘E-mail Alerting’Biogeochemistry of MarineSystemsEdited by Kenneth D.

They are endemicto Eastern North America where they form part of amulti-million dollar sports fishing industry, but theyhave also been widely introduced around the globe byrecreational anglers, in aquaculture programs and bygovernment fisheries agencies.Centrarchid Fishes provides comprehensive coverage ofall major aspects of this ecologically and commerciallyimportant group of fishes.

In recent years worldstocks of commercially fished cod have collapsed, mostfamously the Northern cod stocks of the North EastCoast of Canada. Now, massively falling catches in theNorth Sea have led to the recent heavy cuts in catchquotas. This important book is a comprehensivehandbook, covering all major aspects of the cod.Written by world experts on the species, this book isan essential purchase for all fisheries scientists,managers and fish biologists.2007, 352 PAGES,HARDBACK, ILLUSTRATED, 1405119101,9781405119108CommercialFishingThe WiderEcological ImpactsEdited by G.
