Aquaculture Reports

Aquaculture Reports, a companion title to the respected Aquaculture, is an open access journal publishing original research papers and reviews documenting outstanding science with a regional context and focus. It answers the need for high quality information on novel species, systems and regions in emerging areas of aquaculture research and development, such as integrated multi-trophic aquaculture, urban aquaculture, ornamental, unfed aquaculture, offshore aquaculture and others. Papers having industry research as priority and encompassing product development research or current industry practice are encouraged.

We welcome submissions on novel species or production systems and on species or production systems established locally or with regional significance, falling within the following categories:

Feeding management, nutrition and health: all aspects of aquatic animal feed, nutrition, health and diseases relevant to aquaculture, including evaluation of regional feeds and feedstuffs as well as novel feed management practices and techniques.

Production, sustainability and economics: production methods and systems for aquatic produce. Dissemination of interdisciplinary knowledge regarding the sustainable management of aquatic production systems and resulting impacts on people and environment, which comprises ecosystem services provided by aquaculture. Articles which focus on disruptive innovations and include economics are encouraged. Economics may have a neoclassical, environmental or ecological approach. Manuscripts focus on circular or donut economies are welcome.

Genetics, developmental biology, immunology, physiology and life cycle: all aspects of farmed aquatic animals and plants relevant to solving problems related to their culture.
