Offshore mariculture is critical for global food security and economic development. Advances in deep learning and data-driven approaches, enable the rapid and effective monitoring of offshore mariculture distribution and changes. However, detector pe...
China is the world’s leading producer of offshore mariculture, contributing more than 60 percent of global output. Yet the provincial distribution of mariculture space and its economic concentration are still not well described at a comparable...
Offshore mariculture is a critical component of China’s aquaculture sector, but its rapid expansion presents significant challenges to sustainable marine resource management. This study utilizes high-resolution remote sensing data (2017–2...
Mariculture is crucial in environmental monitoring and safety assurance of marine environments. Certain mariculture areas are often partially or completely submerged in water, which causes the target signal to be extremely weak and difficult to detec...
Marine environments provide a unique opportunity to blend offshore wind energy production and marine fishery activities as complementary technologies. This study investigated the morphological characteristics (length and weight) and biomass yield of...

The distribution characteristics, environmental contamination states, and potential ecological risks of chromium (Cr), copper (Cu), arsenic (As), lead (Pb), and cadmium (Cd) in seawater, sediment and breeding feed were studied in a typical maricultur...
In this paper, the different possibilities and innovations related to sustainable aquaculture in the Mediterranean area are discussed, while different maricultural methods, and the role of Integrated Multi-Trophic Aquaculture (IMTA) in supporting the...
The scientific assessment of mariculture carbon sinks is crucial to recognize its potential as a significant component of marine blue carbon in global climate change mitigation. Therefore, the objective of the research was to estimate the seaweed and...
The growth in population and the higher need for aquatic products make the aquaculture industry the world’s fastest-growing food industry. With its rapid development, production is facing various challenges to achieve sustainability and cost-ef...
Mariculture is a key practice to promote the supply-side reform of fishery, and it is of strategic significance to explore the causes and paths of its high-level development. Based on the TOE (Technology-Organization-Environment) theoretical framewor...
The elevated NH3-N and NO2-N pollution problems in mariculture have raised concerns because they pose threats to animal health and coastal and offshore environments. Supplement of Marichromatium gracile YL28 (YL28) into polluted shrimp rearing water...
Actively promoting the development of offshore wind power is an inevitable choice if the People’s Republic of China plans to fulfill its international commitments, respond to climate change, ensure energy security, and improve energy infrastruc...
As mariculture progresses offshore in the US Exclusive Economic Zone, technical and ecological challenges need to be overcome, such as the choice of suitable sites that favor the production of target species. The offshore culture of blue mussels, Myt...
The growing world population has produced an increasing demand for seafood, and the aquaculture industry is under corresponding pressure to fill this demand. The offshore ecology and environment are under significant threat with the continuous expans...
The accumulation of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in aquatic systems jeopardizes public health and ecological environments. This study investigates ARGs dissemination in freshwater and seawater, focusing on the sources, prevalence and influencin...
Light, as one of the most crucial environmental factors, plays an essential role in the growth, physiology, and evolutionary survival of fish. To cope with diverse light conditions in aquatic environments, fish adapt through photosensory systems comp...
In intensive aquaculture, the number of fish in a shoal can provide valuable input for the development of intelligent production management systems. However, the traditional artificial sampling method is not only time consuming and laborious, but als...
Chlorinated paraffins (CPs) are persistent, bioaccumulative, and toxic. In marine environments, most studies have focused on short-chain CPs (SCCPs) in animals, while medium-and long-chain CPs (MCCPs and LCCPs) in plants have been neglected. In this...
Offshore wind farms (OWFs) generate large-scale wind wakes, which might lead to upwelling/downwelling. Understanding the vertical marine response to the wake effects is crucial for assessing the ecological impacts of OWFs and optimizing their co-depl...
With the transformation of the global energy structure, offshore wind power is developing on a large scale, and the efficient and safe installation of offshore converter platforms has become a key technological bottleneck. Based on the elastic force&...
With the development of offshore wind power towards deep-sea areas, the offshore valve tower, as a key facility of offshore wind farms, plays a vital role in ensuring the stable operation of the system. To investigate its dynamic response characteris...
As offshore wind power moves into deeper waters, large-scale electrical platforms are key to efficient power transmission. However, their heavy topside modules create major installation challenges. As traditional lifting methods are inadequate, the f...
In contrast to numerous documented pathogens and infectious diseases of aquaculture, there is a lack of baseline data and information regarding pathogenic agents’ prevalence in wild marine fish populations. This study focused on two common fish...
Golden pompano (Trachinotus ovatus) ranks among the most commercially important and high-yield marine finfish species in Chinese mariculture. In response to the requirement for monitoring fish in aquaculture, this study employed Adaptive Resolution I...
