Exploring the Causes of Red Vent Syndrome in Wild Atlantic Salmon (salmo salar) From Coastal Waters Around Scotland (2018)
Thesis
Kent, A. Exploring the Causes of Red Vent Syndrome in Wild Atlantic Salmon (salmo salar) From Coastal Waters Around Scotland. (Thesis). Edinburgh Napier University. http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/Output/1508522

In 2005, Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) migrating to the United Kingdom exhibited swollen, haemorrhagic vents, symptoms not previously recorded. The condition was latterly termed Red Vent Syndrome (RVS), and subsequently observed across the North A...

Non-native Bullhead in Scotland: Molecular and Morphological Identification and Parasite Links with Native Fauna (2018)
Thesis
McLeish, J. Non-native Bullhead in Scotland: Molecular and Morphological Identification and Parasite Links with Native Fauna. (Thesis). Edinburgh Napier University. http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/Output/1253308

The arrival of a non-native species to has the potential to shape native communities by influencing ecological interactions such as predation, foraging, competition and disease transfer. A designation of invasive is applied to an introduced non-nativ... Read More about Non-native Bullhead in Scotland: Molecular and Morphological Identification and Parasite Links with Native Fauna.

Modelling the environmental Impacts of suspended Mussel (Mytilus edulis L.) farming. (2002)

Chamberlain, J. Modelling the environmental Impacts of suspended Mussel (Mytilus edulis L.) farming. (Thesis). Edinburgh Napier University. http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/id/eprint/5595

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... Read More about Modelling the environmental Impacts of suspended Mussel (Mytilus edulis L.) farming..
