[交流] Call for Papers for Special Issue: Aquaculture and Environmental Pollution

1. Introduction of Special Issue
Aquaculture can be described as the breeding and harvesting of aquatic organisms, both marine and freshwater, and has been the fastest growing food-producing sector in the world, contributing to almost half of all fish for human food. This share is projected to rise to 62 percent by 2030 as catches from wild capture fisheries level off and consumption by an emerging global middle class substantially increases. Aquaculture is a source not just of health, but also of wealth, especially for developing countries, and continues to be one of the most-traded food commodities in global range.
However, a key concern with the practice of aquaculture is environmental pollution in its production processes as well as its environmental impact. Various toxic chemicals that enter into the environment either intentionally or unintentionally, which could potentially accumulate in aquatic organisms and transferred through the food chain. Meanwhile, effluent from farmed areas could cause environmental pollution, such as nutrient buildup (mostly organic nitrogen and phosphorus) and wastes in ecosystems.
The sustainable development of aquaculture is becoming a challenging issue for scientists, policy-makers, and stakeholders. Therefore, more studies should be conducted to explore the relationship between aquaculture and environmental pollution. A Special Issue Aquaculture and Environmental Pollution, focusing on the novel finding and in-depth understanding of the relationship, will be edited and published in the journal of Environmental Pollution.
If you have a relevant research manuscript, a review, or a commentary designed to stimulate discussion, we invite you to submit it to Environmental Pollution. Choose the article type as ' Aqua & Environ Pollu' when you submit your papers. Please send no later than April 1, 2016.
