Advanced Research Initiatives for Nutrition & Aquaculture (ARRAINA)
Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2016,
Sustainable development of European fish farming is dependent on the availability, environmental sustainability of feeds relying less and less on capture fisheries derived fishmeal and fish oil. The European aquaculture industry has made a determined shift towards the use of feeds based on alternative ingredients which continue to ensure the health and welfare of fish and the nutritional value of ...

"A new integrative framework for the study of fish welfare based on the concepts of allostasis, appraisal and coping styles" (COPEWELL)
Start date: Jul 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2015,
"COPEWELL aims to provide a better understanding of the underpinning mechanisms and basic knowledge about the physiology, biology, and behaviour of fishes and to give a deeper understanding of the basic mechanisms involved in coping styles. We will use an innovative hypothesis-driven multidisciplinary approach that aims to explore the links between brain function, behaviour and adaptive plastici ...

Ecosystem-based Responsive Fisheries Management in Europe (EcoFishMan)
Start date: Mar 1, 2011, End date: Feb 28, 2014,
EcoFishMan seeks to develop a responsive fisheries management system (RFMS) based on results-based management (RBM) principles. The intended context of application of the RFMS is complex, mixed-fisheries and multi-stakeholder fishery sectors like those found in the EU/Common Fisheries Policy (CFP) area. It will be an ecosystem-based sustainable management system under a precautionary framework tha ...

Anaerobic Digestion of Seaweed for Biofuels (SEAWEED AD)
Start date: Sep 1, 2011, End date: Aug 31, 2013,
The overall aims of this 24 month project are to apply metagenomic methods and develop fermentation technologies to select and study an optimum microbial inoculum and define seaweed processing conditions (including detoxification) for the production of methane biofuel from the anaerobic digestion (AD) of seaweeds. In addition the fractionation and characterisation of seaweed antimicrobials and oth ...

Arctic Tipping Points (ATP)
Start date: Feb 1, 2009, End date: Jan 31, 2012,
The broad interdisciplinary consortia assembled in the Arctic Tipping Points (ATP) project will be managed (WP1) to identify the elements of the Arctic marine ecosystem likely to show abrupt changes in response to climate change, and establish the levels of the corresponding climate drivers inducing the regime shift for these tipping elements. ATP will evaluate the consequences of crossing those t ...
