• Open-water integrated multi-trophic aquaculture: environmental biomitigation and economic diversification of fed aquaculture by extractive aquaculture (2012, background): “One often forgotten function of seaweeds is that they are excellent nutrient scrubbers (Chopin et al. 2001).”
• Incorporation of fish feed and growth of blue mussels (Mytilus edulis) in close proximity to salmon (Salmo salar) aquaculture: Implications for integrated multi-trophic aquaculture in Norwegian coastal waters (2012, positive): “The dissolved inorganic nutrient wastes can be taken up by inorganic extractive species such as seaweeds (Buschmann et al., 2001; Chopin et al., 2001; Chopin et al., 2004), while released particulate organic nutrients can be consumed by filter feeding species such as mussels.”
• Distribution of nutrients for seaweed cultivation around salmon cages at farm sites in north-west Scotland (2008, background): “Their utility has been documented for tank and sea-based fish cultivation systems (eg. Evans and Langdon, 2000; Chopin et al., 2001; Fei, 2004; Matos et al., 2006; Neori et al., 2004; Zhou et al., 2006; Carmona et al., 2006).”
• Exploring Northeast American and Asian species of Porphyra for use in an integrated finfish-algal aquaculture system (2006, background): “These nutrients derive from the bacterial release of inorganic N and P from non-consumed animal food, and from excretory waste products of the cultured animals (Beveridge, 1987; Chopin et al., 2001).”
• Potential of the seaweed Gracilaria lemaneiformis for integrated multi-trophic aquaculture with scallop Chlamys farreri in North China (2009, background): “Most studies have focused on seaweeds integrated with fish cultures (Petrell et al. 1993; Hirata and Kohirata 1993; Buschmann et al. 1994; Troell et al. 1997, 2003; Chopin et al. 2001; Neori et al. 2004; Zhou et al. 2006).”
• Integrated seaweed cultivation on an abalone farm in South Africa (2008, background): “The nutrient uptake efficiency was measured as the average percentage decrease in nutrients (Table 3) (defined by Buschmann et al. 2001; Chopin et al. 2001) it can be seen that phosphate was not removed by the seaweeds.”
• Seaweed nutrient physiology: application of concepts to aquaculture and bioremediation (2019, background): “Decomposition of excessive fish feeds and animal excretion can increase dissolved nutrients, primarily nitrogen, into the water column, which can lead to harmful algal blooms and deterioration of coastal environments (e.g. Buschmann et al. 2008a; Chopin et al. 2001; Domingues et al. 2015).”
• Application of seaweed cultivation to the bioremediation of nutrient-rich effluent (2002, background): “To reduce the nutrient burden of the fish farm effluents, the integration of seaweed cultivation with fish aquaculture has been proposed (e.g., Chopin et al. 2001).”
• Searching for Solutions in Aquaculture: Charting a Sustainable Course (2012, positive): “In IMTA systems, various plant and filter-feeding organisms convert waste from fed aquaculture into growth (100, 101).”
• The economics of Integrated Multi‐Trophic Aquaculture: where are we now and where do we need to go? (2020, background): “Chopin et al. (2001) estimated the annual environmental cost of 250 tonnes of gross fish production to be USD 201 441, decreasing to USD 64 000 when an IMTA configuration was adopted to internalize this environmental cost.”
