Environmental factors affecting embryonic development, hatching and survival of early stage larvae of the grouper (Epinephelus coioides)
(Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research, 2004)
These series of experiments were conducted to determine the effects of density (200, 400, 800 and 1600 eggs/litre), salinity (8, 16, 24, 32 and 40 ppt), aeration (0, 0.62, 1.25, 2.50 and 3.75 ml/min/litre) and light intensity ...
Quality of hatchery-reared juveniles for marine fisheries stock enhancement
(Elsevier, 2007)
The potential for stock enhancement by release of hatchery-reared juveniles continues to be a topic of interest to researchers and fisheries managers. While, in many studies, the focus has tended to be on the technology ...
Sulfide as an environmental factor and toxicant: Tolerance and adaptations in aquatic organisms
(Elsevier, 1992)
This review brings together a large number of independent and seemingly unrelated studies in various disciplines under four major topics: (1) sulfide as an environmental factor in aquatic habitats; (2) sulfide as a toxicant; ...

Shrimp aquaculture: the Philippine experience
(Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research, 1999)
An overview is presented of the shrimp farming industry in the Philippines, noting that it was established as brackish-water aquaculture as early as 1521, although it took until the 1970s to take off, blooming during the ...
Total volume of 3D small patch reefs reflected in aerial photographs can predict total species richness of coral reef damselfish assemblages on a shallow back reef
(Springer Verlag, 2015)
Because fish have a high dispersal ability, an understanding coral reef fish metacommunity structure is vital for effective conservation. Coral reefs provide patchy habitat of various sizes and scales. We examined the ...
Mangroves and brackishwater pond culture in the Philippines
(Springer Verlag, 1995)
Around 50% of mangrove loss in the Philippines can be traced to brackishwater pond construction. The decrease in mangroves from 450 000 ha in 1920 to 132 500 ha in 1990 has been accompanied by expansion of culture ponds ...
Multiple gonadal maturation and re-maturation after hormone-induced spawning in bighead carp Aristichthys nobilis Rich.
(San Carlos Publications, University of San Carlos, 1991)
Gonadal maturation and rematuration after hormone-induced spawning in cage-reared female bighead carp Aristichthys nobilis were observed. Percent maturation ranged from 54 to 100% for females and 0 to 40% for males. ...
The interactive effect of some environmental factors on the growth, agar yield and quality of Gracilariopsis bailinae (Zhang et Xia) cultured in tanks
(Walter de Gruyter, 1997)
The single and interactive effects of light and temperature, salinity, and urea enrichment on the growth and agar yield and quality of Gracilariopsis bailinae were determined under indoor and outdoor tank conditions. Culture ...
Genotype environment interaction in the response of three strains of Nile tilapia to poor nutrition
(Elsevier, 1992)
Experiments were conducted to determine the effects of poor nutrition on the growth of three Oreochromis niloticus strains fed protein-deficient diets. Four-week-old fry from the three "test" strains were paired with a ...
Factors affecting the spatio-temporal variability in the production of sandfish Holothuria scabra juveniles in floating hapa ocean nursery systems
(Elsevier, 2021-04)
Hatchery production of the tropical sea cucumber Holothuria scabra or sandfish has been successfully demonstrated in various countries, especially during the past decade. However, the main bottleneck in up-scaling production ...
