A New, Pathogenic Bacterium Identified in Cod
Farmed cod have recently been hit by a serious disease caused by an unknown bacterium. In his doctorate, Jarle Mikalsen, Norwegian School of Veterinary Science contributed to the identification of this bacterium, now called Francisella philomiragia...

Resuscitating the Baltic Sea Out of Anoxia
Anoxic or "dead" zones have become markedly distinct in the Baltic Sea over the years. The continuous formation of these oxygen-deprived areas is proving to be more and more detrimental to aquatic organisms, writes Rachel Ralte, reporting for TheFish...

Catching the Ethical Fish: No Strings Attached
The idea of ethical food is promoted in almost every modern supermarket, but when it comes to producing, catching and eating fish, deciding what ethical means isn't as easy as it seems, writes Adam Anson, reporting for TheFishSite.

Harmonising Nature and Technology with Aquaponics
Born from the abstract philosophy of ecocentric ideals, aquaponics has emerged at the very frontier of agricultural technology. Yet, many years after the modern concept was first realised it has yet to receive the commercial recognition that might unlock...

Raising the Developing World with Aquaculture
In this age of economic recession and ever worsening third world food crisis, it is increasingly important that developing countries find profitable industries for their sustained independence. As a source of both food and finance, it is not difficult...

Integrating Fisheries into Coastal Area Management
Marine and large lake fisheries depend on the coastal area in many different ways. A fishery’s success is based upon continuing stocks of fish, which require healthy habitats for their own food supplies and life cycles, reports the Food and Agriculture...
