Storm Bay Observing System: Assessing the Performance of Aquaculture Development
In Tasmania, farming of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L) has developed rapidly since the first
trials in 1985 and has grown progressively to the current 60,000 tonnes produced in 2020..
Salmon farming in open sea cages produces organic and inorganic wastes which have the
potential to impact the...

Sex reversal and sex differentiation in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar)
The Tasmanian Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) aquaculture industry strives to produce all-female fish, as male Atlantic Salmon are subject to precocious maturation and consequently reduced flesh quality and increased disease susceptibility when reared in high water temperatures. Several fish species,...

Understanding flesh colour variation in Atlantic salmon: molecular mechanisms and genetic effect
This report describes critical findings and new knowledge on flesh colour variation, from both a genetic and a molecular perspective, in Atlantic salmon in Tasmania. The investigation on flesh colour variation, due to its strong correlation with high seawater temperature, led to new important...

Reassessment of intertidal macroalgal communities near to and distant from salmon farms and an evaluation of using drones to survey macroalgal distribution
The salmon farming industry has significantly expanded in South-eastern Tasmanian both in production and in number and location of farms. Along with this expansion has been an increasing concern from the general community about the effects of salmon farms on the environment. This includes a reported...
