TLDR
In this paper, the first pilot trial of an amphipod culture within an offshore IMTA facility was carried out between May and September 2014, testing two collector types, two depths, at 5'm and 15'm, and two experimental times.About:

Integrated multitrophic aquaculture systems – Potential risks for food safety
João G. Rosa,Marco F.L. Lemos,Daniel Crespo,Daniel Crespo,Margarida Nunes,Andreia Freitas,Fernando Ramos,Miguel Ângelo Pardal,Sara Leston +8 more
TL;DR: The present review describes a vast number of substances that can be found in IMTAs, either intentionally administered or resulting from contamination, and subsequently accumulated in species reared afterwards in these systems.

From sessile to vagile: Understanding the importance of epifauna to assess the environmental impacts of coastal defence structures
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of artificial structures on amphipod assemblage and to identify the main factors involved were assessed in five different substrates (seawalls, cubes, acropods, rip-raps and natural rock).

Two cases study of fouling colonization patterns in the Mediterranean Sea in the perspective of integrated aquaculture systems
Adriana Giangrande,M. Lezzi,M. Del Pasqua,Cataldo Pierri,Caterina Longo,Maria Flavia Gravina +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the macrofouling assemblages over one year of immersion, in order to single out the fouling species, which play the most remarkable role for the bioremediation of the marine areas affected by aquaculture activities.

Functional role of biofouling linked to aquaculture facilities in Mediterranean enclosed locations
Valeria Montalto,Maria Cristina Mangano,Gianluca Sarà,M. Cristina Mangano,Alessandro Rinaldi,Francesca Ape,Simone Mirto,Michele Gristina +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the filtration activity of biofouling assemblages colonizing artificial substrata located within a harbor and found that the performance of the communities was affected by the seasonality and the amount of biomass recruiting on the panels, mainly composed of crustaceans, ascidians, polychaetes, seaweeds and several introduced species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aquaculture waste as food for amphipods: the case of Gammarus insensibilis in marsh ponds from southern Spain
TL;DR: The main aim of this study was to determine whether waste products of aquaculture provided an adequate diet for the amphipod in comparison to other traditional diets, such as Artemia nauplii or phytoplankton.

Presence of trace metals in aquaculture marine ecosystems of the northwestern Mediterranean Sea (Italy).
Stefania Squadrone,Paola Brizio,Caterina Stella,Marino Prearo,Paolo Pastorino,Laura Serracca,Carlo Ercolini,Maria Cesarina Abete +7 more
TL;DR: Fish, mussels and oysters collected from aquaculture marine ecosystems of the northwestern Mediterranean Sea showed great variability in metal concentrations; the highest values of the nonessential elements As and Cd were found in oysters while the highest levels of Al, Pb and V were foundIn mussels.

Caprellid amphipods: An overlooked marine finfish aquaculture resource?
TL;DR: Characteristics indicate that caprellids are worthy of consideration for application in marine finfish aquaculture, particularly in environments with a higher organic loading, such as around fish farms.

Growth and condition index of mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis in experimental integrated aquaculture
TL;DR: Results show that production cycle in areas traditionally considered suboptimal for aquaculture can be equivalent to the cycle in Areas traditionally considered optimal for mussel aquacculture if mussel Aquaculture is integrated with ¢n¢sh aquac culture.

Enhanced production of the sea urchin Paracentrotus lividus in integrated open-water cultivation with Atlantic salmon Salmo salar
Elizabeth Cook,Maeve Kelly +1 more
TL;DR: Results show that P. lividus can thrive in the salmon culture environment and suggests that the integration of P. Lividus with Atlantic salmon can provide a viable means to culture this species, even at this northerly latitude.
