Modern aquaculture is faced with a number of challenges, including
public concern about environmental impacts and the welfare of
farmed fish. A fundamental understanding of fish biology is central
to finding ways to meet these challenges and is also essential for
maintaining the industry's sustainability.
Furthermore, the behaviour of fish under culture situations has
long been ignored despite heavy commercial losses that can result
from fish stressed and hence disease-prone, due to bad husbandry
techniques.
This important book summarises the current understanding of the
behavioural biology of farmed species and illustrates how this can
be applied to improve aquaculture practice.
Informative and engaging, "Aquaculture & Behavior" brings
the reader up-to-date with major issues pertaining to aquaculture.
Everyone from fish farmers to upper level students will find this
book a valuable and practical resource. Libraries in universities
and research establishments where animal behavior, aquaculture,
veterinary and biological sciences are studied and taught should
have copies of this work on their shelves.
