Phytoplankton dynamics in aquaculture ponds
Phytoplankton are essential in intensive aquaculture ponds but an excess can result in shallow thermal stratification.

Shrimp feed trials find pen size matters
By comparing the growth of shrimp fed different diets in big versus small net pens, trial results suggested that shrimp could compensate for lower diet quality by grazing on the algae growing on the surfaces of the net cages.

Formulated diets for bivalve spat replace algae in hatchery trials
Although the hatchery rearing of bivalves currently relies heavily on the mass production of microalgae, new feed alternatives are being developed.
