Precise prediction of mooring tension is essential for the safety and operational efficiency of semi-submersible aquaculture platforms. Traditional numerical methods struggle with real-time performance due to the nonlinear and dynamic characteristics of environmental loads. This study proposes a novel neural network approach to enhance real-time forecasting of mooring line responses, combining Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposi...

The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effect of stock enhancement on Penaeus japonicus (Bate, 1888) in Beibu Gulf, South China Sea, and to investigate whether stock enhancement has genetically affected the natural population of P. japonicus in the Beibu Gulf waters. Five microsatellite loci were used to identify released individuals among recaptured specimens. In total, 13 of the 487 recaptured individuals were fou...

Nervous necrosis virus (NNV) is one of the most destructive pathogens in marine fish aquaculture and is capable of infecting more than 50 fish species worldwide, which resulted in great economic losses. Effective drugs for managing NNV infection are urgently required. Medicinal plants have been known for thousands of years and benefit of medicinal plants against pathogens in aquaculture have emerged. Nowadays, the most commonl...

Development of effective conservation and management strategies requires assessments of ecosystem biodiversity status, especially in understudied hotspots of global fish diversity. Coral reefs are important habitats for fishes, with biodiversity hotspots known globally. We present the first data on molecular diversity of fishes of Mischief Reef, the largest atoll in the Nansha Islands. Partial sequences (650 bp) of mitochondri...
