Environmental Studies for Sustainable Aquaculture (ESSA) 2004 symposium report
This report presents a project outline, completion report, extended abstracts from oral presentations and reviewer's comments arising from a symposium held at the completion of a three year (2000-2003) study (Environmental Studies for Sustainable Aquaculture, or ESSA) conducted by the Department of Fisheries and Oceans. Participants from federal and provincial government departments, the salmon aquaculture industry, universities and the general public met from 27 to 29 January, 2004 at Bedford Institute of Oceanography, Dartmouth. Presentations summarized research related to assessing potential far field effects of salmon aquaculture. Study sites were located in three areas (Bay d'Espoir in Newfoundland, Letang Inlet in New Brunswick and south-central British Columbia's Broughton Archipelago) where salmon aquaculture is concentrated in Canada. Physical circulation models describing the distribution of dissolved oxygen, nutrients and particulate matter provided a framework for considering chemical and biological variables in water and sediments that might be used as tracers for dispersion of dissolved and particulate wastes from farm sites. The observations were related to habitat management questions that require predictions and advice for monitoring of far field environmental effects of salmon aquaculture. An over-view and summary of research results from science and management perspectives are included.--Document.
