One of the bottlenecks for commercial implementation of integrated multi‐trophic
aquaculture (IMTA) is the difficulty in quantifying its environmental performance. We …

Qualifying and quantifying nutrient flows within open‐water Integrated Multi‐Trophic
Aquaculture (IMTA) systems is necessary to determine transfer efficiencies and to assess …

Abstract Freshwater mussel (Superfamily Unionoidea) communities are important
components of food webs, and they link and influence multiple trophic levels. Mussels filter …

Isotopic models are increasingly used to determine the relative contribution of different food
sources to an animal's diet. However, these models are based on restrictive assumptions …

Stable isotope ratios, carbon (δ 13 C) and nitrogen (δ 15 N), and fatty acids validated the
trophic connection between farmed fish in a commercial nearshore fish farm and sea …

Mussels are currently the primary species employed in open water integrated multi-trophic
aquaculture (IMTA) systems to extract particulate organic fish waste (OFW) exiting fish net …

A Dynamic Energy Budget (DEB) model is used to simulate growth and reproduction of the
shellfish Mytilus galloprovincialis and Crassostrea gigas in an integrated multi-trophic …

The incorporation of fish feed wastes in digestive gland and mantle tissue and average
growth in length and standardized dry weight of soft tissue matter (DW′) of blue mussels …

The present experiment compared the effects of 6 different diet types, including benthic
matter collected from natural sea water (diet A), brown algae Sargassum thunbergii (diet B) …

A current practice of marine aquaculture is to integrate fish with low-trophic-level organisms
(eg molluscs and/or algae) during farming to minimise effects of cultivation on the …
