Assessment and Communication of Environmental Risks in Coastal Aquaculture : Joint Group of Experts on the Scientific Aspects of Marine Environmental Protection (Gesamp) (Gesamp Reports and Studies) Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

This GESAMP study presents a set of objectives, goals, methodologies and a checklist for assessment and communication of environmental risks which may be associated with coastal aquaculture.

It is structured to improve risk communication and to ensure that risk assessment is a scientific exercise in predicting environmental change.

A set of six case studies is also presented to illustrate the use of the environmental risk assessment methodologies.

These examples of environmental interactions span a range of cultured species from fin fish to molluscs and shrimp.
