Salmon aquaculture and coastal ecosystem health in Chile: Analysis of regulations, environmental impacts and bioremediation systems (2009, background): “In marine coastal systems, extractive organisms (seaweeds and shellfish species) have also demonstrated high bioremediation capabilities [58–61].”
Seaweed aquaculture: cultivation technologies, challenges and its ecosystem services (2017, background): “These strains are homogeneous clonal cultures (Buschmann et al. 2008a, Guillemin et al. 2008, Robinson et al. 2013), which can be more susceptible to diseases outbreaks and environmental changes.”
Seaweed nutrient physiology: application of concepts to aquaculture and bioremediation (2019, background): “…nutrient-rich seawater from fish tanks is supplied to separate tanks where seaweed is either cultivated (e.g. Abreu et al. 2011b; Corey et al. 2014; Domingues et al. 2015) or seeded on longlines and deployed proximate to fish and mussel farms (e.g. Buschmann et al. 2008b; Marinho et al. 2015).”
Life cycle assessment of macroalgae cultivation and processing for biofuel production (2014, unknown): “Macroalgae and particularly, M. pyrifera and G. chilensis , have been found to be effective bio ﬁ lters (Buschmann et al., 2008).”
