Climate Change on Diseases and Disorders of Finfish in Cage Culture 3rd Edition
By Patrick T.K. Woo and Rohana P. Subasinghe
Climate Change on Diseases and Disorders of Finfish in Cage Culture, 3rd Edition PDF describes how finfish in cage culture and their pathogens are directly or indirectly affected by ongoing environmental changes. These changes, including a global rise in water temperature with increased acidification and reduced dissolved oxygen, will continue even if we can significantly reduce anthropogenic carbon dioxide and methane output.
The third edition of Diseases and Disorders of Finfish in Cage Culture has been renamed to be included in the series and is completely updated and revised. It has:
Nine updated chapters with new expert contributions from around the world
A focus on the effects that climate change has, and will have, on finfish and their pathogens
New material includes chapters on algal blooms, biosecurity and fish welfare
An emphasis on practical recommendations and changes that can be made to improve fish health
This book is key reading for all involved in finfish cage culture, including research scientists, ecologists, fish health consultants, veterinarians, policymakers and all who are interested in fish health and environmental changes. It is a good reference text for ‘workshops on fish health’ and academic courses such as aquaculture and fish health.
