These basic models should provide the baseline for further research to advance precision farming practices and support efficient production for meagre (<em>Argyrosomus regius</em>). Several reference models, with different levels of complexity, were built using data from scientific publications and feeding tables, followed by evaluating 27 different models using various fitting methods. Each model's mean absolute percentage error was estimated through repeated 5-fold cross-validation (with n = 200 iterations). Models were divided into four categories based on the inclusion of temperature and diet composition parameters: simple feed-independent models, complex feed-independent models, simple feed-dependent models, and complex feed-dependent models. The best model from each category was identified, followed by an assessment of the overall best. Consistent with dynamic energy budget theory, models using a fixed body weight exponent of 2/3 demonstrated better fit. Feed-dependent models incorporating lipid levels outperformed feed-independent ones. Additionally, simpler models with temperature parameters effectively predicted feed intake at optimal temperatures, while more complex models predicted intake better above the thermal optimum. The reference models selected in this study can be applied to estimate feed requirements over time for production or experimental trials, benchmark feeding to isolate the effect of other variables, support growth models and alternative feeding tables, and provide decision support.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":8120,"journal":{"name":"Aquacultural Engineering","volume":"110 ","pages":"Article 102526"},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143527535","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In addition to the substantial feed consumption common to all types of systems, the high direct energy demand is driven by electricity use for water extraction, pumping, and aeration in land-based farms, and by fuel consumption in coastal farms. The aim of this study is to analyse the Cumulative Energy Demand (CED) of the production of European Sea Bass and Gilthead Sea Bream across different farming systems in the Mediterranean area. By focusing on both land-based and coastal sea-cage systems, an energy analysis of four different farms was conducted using a “from cradle to gate” life cycle approach. The functional unit for this study was set at 1 tonne of fish. The results show that land-based farms have a higher CED (168,535 and 188,642 MJ/t) due to both feed consumption (32 and 39 % of the total) and the use of liquid oxygen (46 and 16 % of the total) and direct electricity (20 and 43 % of the total, with on-site electricity consumption of 34,167.6 and 14,086.8 MJ/t). The lower CED of coastal farms (66,224 and 76,507 MJ/t) is largely due to feed usage (around 90 % of the total) and low fuel intensity (67.6 and 82.9 l/t, corresponding to 2495 and 3057 MJ/t, respectively). A scenario analysis was conducted using the 2030 projected national electricity mix of the Integrated National Energy and Climate Plan for land-based farms. Additionally, the impact of substituting diesel with biofuel in coastal farms was evaluated. The results indicate that these changes could reduce the use of non-renewable sources by at least 5 %.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":8120,"journal":{"name":"Aquacultural Engineering","volume":"110 ","pages":"Article 102525"},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143508456","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The water microbial communities’ structure was assessed through the 16S rRNA gene over two weeks’ post-treatment.

The result revealed that coated oxygen tablets with cellulose acetate prolonged (43 % higher) the duration of oxygen release as compared to non-coated calcium oxide tablets in tanks without fish. Whereas in tanks with fish (<em>Labeo catla</em> fingerlings) addition of two coated tablets prolonged the optimum DO level for 3 h which is 33 % higher than the non-coated tablets. An addition of 10 noncoated tablets in fish tank created a hyperoxic condition and the DO level increased above 12 ppm, leading to agitated fish behavior. However, same level of coated tablets addition maintained the DO level above 5 ppm for 16 h and did not render any abnormal fish behaviour.

Monitoring the water quality and controlling feeding are fundamental elements of balancing fish productivity and shaping the fish growth process. Currently, most fish-feeding processes are conducted manually in different phases and rely on time-consuming and challenging artificial discrimination. The feeding control approach influences fish growth and breeding through the feed conversion rate; hence, controlling these feeding parameters is crucial for enhancing fish welfare and minimizing general aquaculture costs. In addition to feeding, several important environmental factors, such as temperature, dissolved oxygen, and ammonia, also affect fish health and production. Therefore, there is a critical need to develop control strategies to determine optimal, efficient, and reliable feeding processes and monitor water quality. This paper reviews the main control design techniques for fish growth in aquaculture systems, namely algorithms that optimize the feeding and water quality of a dynamic fish growth process. Specifically, we review model-based control approaches and model-free reinforcement learning strategies to optimize the growth and survival of the fish or track a desired reference live-weight growth trajectory. The model-free framework uses an approximate fish growth dynamic model and does not satisfy constraints. We discuss how model-based approaches can support a reinforcement learning framework to efficiently handle constraint satisfaction and find better trajectories and policies from value-based reinforcement learning.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":8120,"journal":{"name":"Aquacultural Engineering","volume":"109 ","pages":"Article 102511"},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2024-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143140080","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
