The Australasian snapper ( Chrysophrys auratus ) is a candidate for offshore aquaculture in New Zealand. The culture of snapper requires knowledge of the best locations for farms and a key variable is water temperature. The oxygen‐ and capacity‐limited thermal tolerance (OCLTT) hypothesis suggests fish performance is optimised at the temperature that maximises absolute aerobic scope (AAS), whereas the ‘multiple performances–mu...

Major storms can cause significant changes to coastal and wetland environments. A series of storm events in 2020 resulted in closure of the historically open estuary at Cabbage Tree Basin, Port Hacking, New South Wales (NSW), Australia. Prolonged tidal impoundment (3 months) led to substantial changes in hydrological and sedimentological processes, resulting in widespread mangrove dieback. This study aimed to quantify the degr...

Koi herpesvirus (KHV) causes a highly virulent disease affecting carp, Cyprinus carpio L. , and poses a serious socio‐economic threat to the UK carp industry. This study aimed to determine the geographic distribution and prevalence of KHV exposed fish in England and Wales through ELISA antibody testing. Only three of the 82 farms sampled produced positive results, suggesting fish farms provide a relatively safe source of fish....
