The potential impacts of marine aquaculture operations on the environment are reviewed. The reported effects of suspended mussel farms on the benthic environment are examined and the potential impacts discussed. A framework to assess the impacts o...

The effects of increased sedimentation on the macrobenthic community, physical structure, and biogeochemistry of the surficial sediment around two farms in southwest Ireland were examined in conjunction with current characteristics. Both farms had be... Read More about Impacts of biodeposits from suspended mussel (Mytilus edulis L.) culture on the surrounding surficial sediments.
