AQUACULTURAL ENGINEERING

An International Journal
Aquacu/tural Engineering aims to provide a forum for the presentation of original work, interpretative
reviews and discussions on the latest developments in aquacultural engineering. The scope is wide and no
limitation, except relevance to aquacultural engineering, is imposed on the subject matter of the papers.
Emphasis is placed on fundamental research, the development of engineering methods and the application
of ideas which may not necessarily be novel in themselves, but which have not before been applied to
aquacultural engineering problems. It isthe policy of the journal to encourage intercommunication between
biologists, engineers, economists and marketing people, in fact, all w h o have a common interest in
aquacultural engineering.
