Title: Interactions Between Aquaculture and Environment
Abstract: Humans have been engaged in aquaculture for eight thousands of years. Because of limited scale, aquaculture activities as a whole do not expose significant impacts on surrounding environment in most of the aquaculture history. Since 1970s, the increasing adoption of artificial pelletized feed, modern fish cages and aerators have promoted the rapid expansion and intensification of aquaculture in the world. Nowadays, the environmental consequences derived from aquaculture have threatened the sustainable development of aquaculture itself. Aquaculture is not only injurer and also sufferer of environmental deterioration. In this chapter effects of exogenous pollutants on aquaculture, negative effects of aquaculture on environment, effects of global climate changes on aquaculture and greenhous emission from aquaculture systems are introduced.
