Abstract:
... Sea urchins are of major economic importance in aquaculture in China. Strongylocentrotus intermedius, introduced from Japan into Chinese waters, is the major species that is cultured. Seeds are cultured on long-lines or placed into the sea. We provide a description of a seed hatchery in China that produced ca. 18 million seeds of a genetically improved strain of S. intermedius in 2017. ...

Abstract:
... Aquaculture farms' efficiency may be different across regions due to spatial variation in their production environment. Thus, if efficiency is measured and compared without accounting for regional differences in the production environment, it may lead to a biased evaluation of efficiency and correspondingly erroneous policy suggestions. This paper uses the meta-frontier approach to compare efficie ...

Abstract:
... Land-based, closed containment salmon aquaculture involves rearing salmon from smolt to adult in recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS). Unlike in open-net pen aquaculture, rearing conditions can be specified in RAS in order to optimize growth and physiological stress tolerance. The environmental conditions that yield optimal stress tolerance in salmon are, however, unknown. To address this knowl ...

Abstract:
... This paper proposes a robust model predictive control (RMPC) approach for the automatic operation boats to cast baits evenly along desired paths. The difficulties in the control design come from the control system model, which is nonlinear, underactuated, input saturated, and disturbed by time-varying signals. The RMPC overcomes these difficulties by the receding horizon optimization explicitly co ...
