    • Leaving the niche: Recommendations for mainstreaming Low Trophic Aquaculture in countries around the Atlantic basin 

      Tett, Paul; Charalambides, George; Franco, Sofia C.; Hughes, Adam D.; Mikkelsen, Eirik Inge; Nielsen, Kåre Nolde; Routledge, Eric Arthur Bastos; Nielsen, Pernille; James, Philip (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-11-01)
      Low Trophic Aquaculture (LTA) is the farming of aquatic organisms such as primary producers (e.g., seaweeds) and primary consumers (e.g. bivalves). Despite recognition as a key pathway to the provision of sustainable food from the oceans, many forms of LTA around the Atlantic basin remain in the niche stage of socio-technical evolution. With governance regarded as a limiting factor to LTA development, ...
    • Can pots be an alternative fishing gear to gillnets? A Mediterranean case study 

      Virgili, M.; Petetta, A.; Herrmann, Bent; Cerbule, Kristine; Guicciardi, S.; La Manna, Manna; Malvarosa, L.; Li Veli, Veli; Barone, G.; Lucchetti, A. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-09-12)
      Small-scale coastal fisheries in the Mediterranean often employ gillnets, a widely used gear worldwide. The disadvantages of gillnets in this fishery include high bycatch levels of unwanted species and consequent discards. Moreover, spatial conflict with other gears and dolphin depredation often results in considerable economic loss. Alternative fishing methods are being tested. This study investigated ...
