Complementary Benefits of Alternative Energy: Suitability of Offshore Wind Farms as Aquaculture Sites

The large scale growth in salmon production in the UK has resulted in most available near shore finfish sites being used up for finfish farming. The development of offshore sites or technology improvements alone hold the key for the sustained growth of the UK aquaculture industry. The offshore wind industry has been rapidly expanding in the UK and will occupy major amount of coastal offshore space when zoning plans are developed. The prospects for using the offshore wind farm areas for aquaculture production (finfish and other species) has the potential to open up new sites for finfish farming in the UK. This work examined the suitability of aquaculture in offshore wind farms from the point of view of all the stakeholders involved.

Evaluation of Good Handling Practice for Razor Claims

High-quality razor clams (Ensis spp.) are currently exported via airfreight to the Far East where they command a high price; there are believed to be substantial underutilised stocks around the UK.<brTo assist in the possible development of this fishery, different methods of capture and post-harvest handling of razor clams were investigated to examine the conditions of capture and storage most likely to produce and maintain high quality and viable live animals. The razors used in the study had been either diver-caught or harvested using a commercial fluidised-bed towed razor clam dredge.
