Welcome to this week's newsletter
We have 5 new features this week:
Conflict Within the Global Shrimp Industry
As sea creatures go, shrimp are extraordinarily diverse. From tropical estuarine ecosystems to shallow shelves, continental slopes and deep seas as well as the open ocean, shrimp exist in almost all geographical locations around the world. Yet, in spite of their abundance, conflict within the industry is huge, writes Adam Anson, reporting for TheFishSite.
Carbon Sequestration Potential of Shellfish
As the global average temperature increases and CO2 within the ocean begins to reach saturation the ability of the ocean to absorb carbon will alter significantly, writes J. P. Hickey, School of Natural and Built Environs, University of South Australia.
Welfare of Farmed EU Seabass and Gilthead Seabream
Following a request from the European Commission, the AHAW Panel was asked to deliver a Scientific Opinion on the animal welfare aspects of husbandry systems for farmed seabass (Dicentrarchus labrax) and seabream (Sparus aurata). This Opinion was later published by the European Food Standards Agency.
Growth of Cultured European Flat Oysters in the Menai Strait
Throughout much of the UK wild stocks of the native flat oyster, Ostrea edulis, are severely depleted as a result of two centuries of over-exploitation, pests, disease, pollution and harsh winters and are now considered rare enough to have a Species Action Plan, writes James Forde, Jonathan King, Shelagh Malham and Andy Beaumont, Shellfish News, CEFAS.

Viet Nam exported nearly 550 000 tonnes of tra and basa pangasius (commonly called pangasius) in the first ten months of 2008, for a value of USD 1.24 billion, says this FAO Globefish report.
