Download or read book Nordic fisheries and aquaculture written by Nielsen, Max and published by Nordic Council of Ministers. This book was released on 2017-02-08 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report contributes to the understanding of how the the socio-economic contribution of Nordic fisheries/aquaculture are affected by the environment and environmental management, with focus on nitrogen. The report contains two case studies of how the socio-economic contribution of Danish/Swedish cod fishery in the Western Baltic Sea are affected by the nitrogen in the sea, and on how salmon growth rates in aquaculture in the Bokna Fiord are affected by nitrogen concentration. A Nordic workshop was held with the title: Fisheries, aquaculture and the marine environment: Environmental challenges and regulation, with focus on nitrogen. The finding of the case studies was presented at the workshop, together with presentations made by invited speakers on the role of nutrients and their management for Nordic fisheries/aquaculture. The discussion at the workshop is summarized in this report.
Download or read book Perspectives for Sustainable Development of Nordic Aquaculture written by Trond W. Rosten and published by Nordic Council of Ministers. This book was released on 2013-05-23 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aquaculture is one of the fastest growing productions and the value of aquaculture is now about to pass the value of capture fisheries. Among the Nordic countries, Norway in particular has been able to create a large aquaculture industry with high growth rates over a number of years. The other Nordic countries have only had limited growth, but have a high unutilised potential. There is a need to identify opportunities and limitations for increased growth with due care for sustainability and environment. This report identifies seven focus areas with special potential for creation of a sustainable, competitive Nordic aquaculture sector. These areas are new feeds, better use and reuse of nutrients (nitrogen, phosphorus and carbon), value adding of by-products, technological and regional development, domestication of new species and reduction of energy consumption. The aquaculture sector with its strengths and weaknesses is described for each of the Nordic countries. The report is compiled on basis of contributions from a Nordic group of experts. It was presented at a seminar on Green Growth at the annual meeting of the Nordic Ministers of Fisheries in Trondheim, July 2012.
Download or read book A World of Many Worlds written by Marisol de la Cadena and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2018-10-25 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A World of Many Worlds is a search into the possibilities that may emerge from conversations between indigenous collectives and the study of science's philosophical production. The contributors explore how divergent knowledges and practices make worlds. They work with difference and sameness, recursion, divergence, political ontology, cosmopolitics, and relations, using them as concepts, methods, and analytics to open up possibilities for a pluriverse: a cosmos composed through divergent political practices that do not need to become the same.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Becoming Salmon is the first ethnographic account of salmon aquaculture, the most recent turn in the human history of animal domestication. As fish are enrolled in new regimes of marine domestication, traditional distinctions between fish and animals are reconfigured, recasting farmed fish as sentient beings, capable of feeling pain and subject to animal welfare legislation. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork in Norway and Australia, the author traces farmed Atlantic salmon through contemporary industrial practices, and shows how salmon are bred to be hungry, globally mobile, and alien in their watersheds of origin. Attentive to the economic context of industrial food production as well as the mundane practices of caring for fish, it offers novel perspectives on domestication, human-animal relations, and food production"--Provided by publisher.

Download or read book Animal Industries written by Taina Syrjämaa and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2024-04 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines an extremely topical phenomenon, the massive industrial exploitation of animals, from a previously neglected perspective. It explores the history and development of animal industries in Nordic countries from their establishment in the late nineteenth century to the present day. These countries are often considered to be progressive and advanced in animal protection, but consumption practices in this area are actually excessive in relation to planetary resources and are among the most unsustainable on a global scale. If we want to understand current problems, it is essential to be aware of long-term changes and continuities, as well as the diversity of animals that have been exploited. The purpose of this book is to explain these changes and provide new knowledge for scholars in human-animal studies, decisionmakers and the general public.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Available online: https://pub.norden.org/nord2024-004/ For most of the Nordic countries, fisheries and aquaculture are important economic sectors. Their labour markets are however male-dominated, and strongly gender-segregated. This report serves as a critical resource for understanding the current state of gender equality in the maritime sector. It offers actionable recommendations for policymakers, industry leaders, and educational institutions to promote gender equality and harness the potential and value of women in this field.
Download or read book BAT for Reduction and Reuse of Emissions in Nordic Land based Aquaculture written by Howard, Callum and published by Nordic Council of Ministers. This book was released on 2023-06-30 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Available online: https://pub.norden.org/temanord2023-514/ An appeal of land-based aquaculture is that emissions can be theoretically contained and valorized, but techniques for reusing emissions are constantly changing. In order for the Nordic aquaculture industry to grow in an environmentally sustainable manner, information on the best techniques must be disseminated. That is why the Nordic Council of Ministers, BAT group requested a report on the Best Available Techniques for the reduction and reuse of emissions from land-based aquaculture. The report discusses the current state of Nordic aquaculture, including policy specific to land-based production. The techniques to reduce, reuse, and valorize the major emission types from land-based aquaculture are described in detail. The information within the report is of use to a wide number of stakeholders including operators, policy makers, environmental authorities, investors, and entrepreneurs.

Salmon Farming gives an overview of aquaculture production systems focusing on Atlantic salmon farming. However, much of the subject coverage and overall structure of the book are directly transferable to other species, with much of the core of the book being species-independent and applicable internationally. 5m Books

Download or read book The Rights of Indigenous Peoples in Marine Areas written by Stephen Allen and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2019-09-19 with total page 571 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The question of what rights might be afforded to Indigenous peoples has preoccupied the municipal legal systems of settler states since the earliest colonial encounters. As a result of sustained institutional initiatives, many national legal regimes and the international legal order accept that Indigenous peoples possess an extensive array of legal rights. However, despite this development, claims advanced by Indigenous peoples relating to rights to marine spaces have been largely opposed. This book offers the first sustained study of these rights and their reception within modern legal systems. Taking a three-part approach, it looks firstly at the international aspects of Indigenous entitlements in marine spaces. It then goes on to explore specific country examples, before looking at some interdisciplinary themes of crucial importance to the question of the recognition of the rights of Indigenous peoples in marine settings. Drawing on the expertise of leading scholars, this is a rigorous and long-overdue exploration of a significant gap in the literature.
