With a growing human population and the need to protect our oceans from overfishing, there is a requirement for society to source alternative means of sustainable protein. Mussel aquaculture has rapidly expanded in many countries serving as an important supply of protein, but its development has been limited due to competition for coastal space and the associated environmental impacts of farming in inshore waters. Offshore aquaculture developments have the potential to overcome such issues. This review synthesises the current literature on the ecological and oceanographic interactions of longline offshore mussel farms with the aim to elucidate the main knowledge gaps in a context of management and conservation. Large offshore aquaculture installations interact with the hydrodynamics of the area causing water flow distortions and current attenuation, wake formation and distorting water column stratification which can have an effect on the supply of nutrient and seston as well as altering material dispersal, biodeposition and resuspension, having in turn, a knock-on effect on the carrying capacity of the system, ultimately affecting the surrounding ecology and its ecosystem services. Offshore mussel farm studies report an increase biomass or numbers of benthic and pelagic organisms beneath and around mussel ropes relative to control sites using the structure for shelter, refuge and nursery. Improving our understanding of offshore aquaculture–environment interactions is crucial to identify the priorities needed for future research to inform policy and management practices as well as its role as part of the Blue Growth Agenda and as ‘other effective area-based conservation measures’ (OECMs).

近海延绳钓贻贝养殖场:回顾海洋学和生态相互作用,为未来的研究需求、政策和管理提供信息

随着人口的增长以及保护海洋免受过度捕捞的需要,社会需要寻找可持续蛋白质的替代方法。贻贝水产养殖在许多国家迅速扩大,作为蛋白质的重要​​供应来源,但由于对沿海空间的竞争以及近海养殖对环境的相关影响,其发展受到限制。近海水产养殖的发展有可能克服这些问题。本综述综合了有关延绳钓近海贻贝养殖场生态和海洋相互作用的现有文献,旨在阐明管理和保护背景下的主要知识差距。大型离岸水产养殖设施与该地区的水动力相互作用,导致水流扭曲和水流衰减、尾流形成和扭曲的水柱分层,这会对养分和沉积物的供应产生影响,并改变物质的扩散、生物沉积和再悬浮,具有反过来,对系统承载能力产生连锁反应,最终影响周围的生态及其生态系统服务。近海贻贝养殖场研究报告说,相对于使用该结构作为庇护所、避难所和育苗场的对照地点,贻贝绳下方和周围的底栖和中上层生物的生物量或数量有所增加。
