Tins paper addresses the importance of different product farms and their origin when considering the market structure in the European salmon market. The competition between Farmed Atlantic salmon and wild-caught pacific salmon has received some attention previously. However, this was before frozen Atlantic salmon emerged as an important product form...
The Lofoten fishery exploits the spawning migration of the Northeast- Arctic cod and is one of the fisheries in the world with the longest history. Since 1860, data on participation and catches in the Lofoten fishery are available. For about a hundred years, labor productivity in this fishery, measured as...
The reactions between sodium nitrite and the polyamines
spermidine and spermine were investigated. When reacted at 80°C
for 1 hr at pH 3.5 with a 1:3 molar ratio of amine groups to sodium
nitrite, five volatile nitrosamines were identified as products in the
nitrosation of spermidine. 3HC1, and two volatile...
Fisheries affect fish stocks through their exploitation rate and exploitation pattern. Both influence the economic yield from the fish stock. In regulated fisheries, the exploitation rate is determined either by the acceptable level of fishing effort or catch, whereas the exploitation pattern is determined by selectivity of gears and/or regulatory...

One of the biggest hurdles for a juvenile salmonid (Oncorhynchus mykiss) is migrating downstream from freshwater spawning grounds to the ocean. Juveniles from wild broodstock were reared from the South Santiam River for more than 1 year at the Oregon Hatchery Research Center (OHRC) in Alsea, OR. The fish were...
Understanding the origin and nature of intra specific biodiversity enables us to better conserve and manage animal populations. Biological diversity is seen at different scales and for different traits such as behavior, morphology, physiology, and life history. Behavior is especially important since behavioral changes are believed to precede changes in...
Norwegian aquaculture emerged in the end of 1960 when new discoveries transformed production from trout farming to salmon farming. During recent decades farmed salmon has been one of the most successful aquaculture species in terms of production growth. Annual global production has increased from a few thousand tons in 1980...
In the North Atlantic, cold, relatively salty water sinks in the icy Labrador and Greenland seas, forming North Atlantic Deep Water (NADW). This circulates through the global ocean, driving ocean overturning and global heat transport and, thus, impacting global climate. As one of the most climatically sensitive regions on Earth,...
