Seafood waste: a source for preparation of commercially employable chitin/chitosan materials (2019, background): “2013), out of which 2.8 × 1010 kg is generated by arthropods in freshwater and 1.3 × 1012 kg in marine environment (Cauchie 2002).”
Linkage between crustacean zooplankton and aquatic bacteria (2010, background): “The annual biosynthesis of chitin has been estimated at 1.4 billion tons in all aquatic environments combined (Cauchie 2002).”
More than just fish food: ecosystem services provided by freshwater insects (2015, background): “1), 113–123 exoskeletons of all insects, but aquatic insects provide the greatest promise owing to their sheer abundance and productivity (Cauchie, 2002).”
