Cost effective application of superintensive, biosecure marine production systems in the U.S. will depend upon proactive management of culture-water quality. More efficient production practices and effective management of waste materials from the shrimp aquaculture industry can allow for higher productivity, improved growth and survival, and pave the way for eventual application away from coastal areas. These improved production strategies are key factors contributing to profitability and environmental sustainability. Development of cost-effective management strategies includes application of mechanical and biological filtration devices to remove solids and nitrogenous products from culture systems. Accumulation of these waste products can limit system productivity and negatively impact cultured animals, increasing the potential for stress,International Journal ofRecirculating Aquaculture 6 (2005) [49][50][51][52][53][54][55][56][57][58][59][60][61][62][63][64]
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
