Flowing Water Fish Culture
Flowing Water Fish Culture by Richard W Soderberg, published by Taylor & Francis Limited in December 2019, is a comprehensive resource that delves into the husbandry of fin fish in flowing water environments. This 160-page edition presents a detailed exploration of intensive aquaculture, covering essential topics such as fish growth rates, hydraulic characteristics of rearing units, and the dynamics of oxygen consumption in relation to fish tolerance to hypoxia.
Readers will find that this book offers specific insights that are practical for the design and operation of aquaculture facilities. It includes problem sets at the end of each chapter, allowing for skill development in various aquaculture practices, from conventional trout hatcheries to more complex closed systems. The text serves as a valuable reference for educators, practitioners, and anyone interested in the science and technology of fisheries and aquaculture.
Official synopsis Publisher
Flowing Water Fish Culture provides an in-depth discussion of the husbandry of fin fish in a stream of water. It guides the reader through the technical considerations of intensive aquaculture, including fish growth rates, hydraulic characteristics of fish rearing units, oxygen consumption rates in relation to oxygen solubility and fish tolerance of hypoxia, and water reconditioning by reaeration and ammonia filtration. Unlike other publications that provide only general overviews on the subject, this text/reference offers specific details that will be useful in the actual design and operation of a facility. Problem sets at the end of each chapter provide ample opportunity to develop skills. The information in the book is valuable for those teaching, considering, or practicing aquaculture at intensity levels ranging from conventional single-pass trout hatcheries to closed aquaculture systems.
