Journal ArticleDOI

Seasonal- and depth-dependent growth of cultivated kelp (Saccharina latissima) in close proximity to salmon (Salmo salar) aquaculture in Norway

TL;DR: C cultivation of the sugar kelp Saccharina latissima in integration with salmon (Salmo salar) aquaculture in a Norwegian coastal area shows good growth in late autumn and in spring, with peak lengths of the sporophytes in June, while being poor in winter and summer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modelling the cultivation and bioremediation potential of the kelp Saccharina latissima in close proximity to an exposed salmon farm in Norway

TL;DR: 3-dimensional hydrodynamic−ecological model system (SINMOD) was used to estimate the full-scale cultivation potential of the brown alga Saccharina latissima in integrated multi-trophic aquaculture (IMTA) with Atlantic salmon Salmo salar and to quantify its seasonal bioremediation potential.
Journal ArticleDOI

Development of Saccharina latissima (Phaeophyceae) kelp hatcheries with year-round production of zoospores and juvenile sporophytes on culture ropes for kelp aquaculture.

TL;DR: The results indicate that a year-round sorus induction in S. latissima is possible and that this induction is controlled by applying short-day treatment of adult sporophytes throughout the year and by the removal of the basal blade meristem.

A new Norwegian bioeconomy based on cultivation and processing of seaweeds: Opportunities and R&D needs

TL;DR: In this article, a new bioeconomy based on cultivated macroalgae is proposed, which will establish a future feedstock bypassing the competition with land-based agricultural resources and at the same time contribute to the replacement of fossil resources.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Kelp Cultivation Potential in Coastal and Offshore Regions of Norway

TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the potential of sugar kelp (Saccharina latissima) as a function of latitude and position (near and offshore) along the Norwegian coast using a coupled 3D hydrodynamic-biogeochemical-kelp model system (SINMOD).
