Ecological carrying capacity in shellfish culture Operational models of carrying capacity applied to a Norwegian fjord
Bacher, Cedric; Filgueira, Ramón; Grant, Jon; Strand, Øivind (ICES CM documents;2008/H:09, Working paper, 2008)Estimation of production carrying capacity for shellfish culture has become a major focus in research, with operational models applied at culture sites worldwide. Fundamental to these efforts are an understanding of the ... -
Effect of Mytilus coruscus selective filtration on phytoplankton assemblages
Jiang, Tao; Pan, Huizhu; Steeves, Laura; Jiang, Zengjie; Filgueira, Ramón; Strand, Øivind; Strohmeier, Tore; Cranford, Peter J.; Cui, Zhengguo (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The feeding selectivity of bivalves can play an important role in shaping the structure of phytoplankton communities of natural waters. This could be particularly true in waters with intensive bivalves farming, like Sungo ... -
High-Frequency Responses of the Blue Mussel (Mytilus edulis) Feeding and Ingestion Rates to Natural Diets
Steeves, Laura; Aguera, Antonio; Filgueira, Ramón; Strand, Øivind; Strohmeier, Tore (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The feeding activity of bivalves is understood to change in response to a suite of environmental conditions, including food quantity and quality. It has been hypothesized that, by varying feeding rates in response to the ... -
Mussels or tunicates: That is the question. Evaluating efficient and sustainable resource use by low-trophic species in aquaculture settings
Filgueira, Ramón; Strople, Leah; Strohmeier, Tore; Rastrick, Samuel; Strand, Øivind (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The growing demand for aquaculture products can only be maintained by increasing the production of lower trophic species such as bivalves and tunicates. Low trophic species avoid the energy losses during trophic transfers ... -
Potential methodological influences on the determination of particle retention efficiency by suspension feeders: Mytilus edulis and ciona intestinalis
Cranford, Peter J.; Strohmeier, Tore; Filgueira, Ramón; Strand, Øivind (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)The retention efficiency (RE) of suspension-feeding bivalve molluscs depends on particle size and is generally assumed to decline below a maximum retention of particles larger than 3 to 7 µm. Previous suggestions that the ... -
Regulating Services of Bivalve Molluscs in the Context of the Carbon Cycle and Implications for Ecosystem Valuation
Filgueira, Ramón; Strohmeier, Tore; Strand, Øivind (Chapter, 2019)The role of marine bivalves in the CO2 cycle has been commonly evaluated as the balance between respiration, shell calcium carbonate sequestration, and CO2 release during biogenic calcification; however, this individual-based ... -
Revisiting ecological carrying capacity indices for bivalve culture
Comeau, Luc A.; Guyondet, Thomas; Drolet, David; Sonier, Rémi; Clements, Jeff C.; Tremblay, Réjean; Filgueira, Ramón (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Ecological carrying capacity (ECC) indices for bivalve culture rely on key ecosystem turnover rates: 1. clearance time (CT), the time needed for the cultured bivalves to filter the entire bay volume; 2. renewal time (RT), ... -
Transforming sustainable aquaculture by applying circularity principles
Chary, Killian; van Riel, Anne-Jo; Muscat, Abigail; Wilfart, Aurélie; Harchaoui, Souhil; Verdegem, Marc; Filgueira, Ramón; Troell, Max; Henriksson, Patrik J. G.; de Boer, Imke J. M.; Wiegertjes, Geert F. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)A circular economy is considered one way to reduce environmental impacts of human activities, by more efficient use of resources and recovery, resulting in less waste and emissions compared to linear take-make-dispose ... -
Transparency and communication in Norwegian and Nova Scotian Atlantic salmon aquaculture industries
Trueman, Justin D.; Filgueira, Ramón; Fanning, Lucia (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The Atlantic salmon aquaculture industry has the potential to make a significant contribution to economic development and seafood production globally – particularly in rural and coastal communities. However, the lack of ...
