Title: Quality analyses in aquaculture
Thematic area: Marine Science
Dates: 19-23 February 2024
Deadline for applications: 9 February 2024
More information: Quality analyses in aquaculture
Quality analyses in aquaculture is an interdisciplinary topic that draws on biology, chemistry, environmental sciences, and various other disciplines to ensure sustainability in aquaculture whilst meeting consumer and regulatory demands. Various practices and developments in this topic play a crucial role in promoting responsible and environmentally friendly aquaculture practices.
Some of the main scientific approaches to quality analysis in aquaculture involve:
Chemical parameters: ammonia, nitrites, nitrates, etc.
Biological parameters: assessing the presence and abundance of plankton, algae, and bacteria helps determine the health of the aquatic ecosystem.
Nutrient Analysis: monitoring the nutrient content of fish and aquafeed is essential for ensuring optimal growth and health.
Research and Data Analysis: collecting and analyzing data, evaluating the results, conducting statistical analyses allows to draw meaningful conclusions.
Ecological and Sustainability Analysis: assessing the ecological and environmental impact of aquaculture systems, as the Aquaculture emissions footprint
