Feed constitutes a considerable portion of the environmental impact embedded in farmed fish production, making it pivotal factor enhancing aquaculture sustainability. While research has evaluated pressures feed no other spatially explicit global biodiversity assessment animal feeds exists, and we provide new approach. Here, assess impacts on 54,628 marine terrestrial species for two contrasting Atlantic salmon feeds. We find widespread both (~89%) (~71%) species, yet relatively small average...
Summary Future phosphorus (P) scarcity and eutrophication risks demonstrate the need for systems‐wide P assessments. Despite projected drastic increase in world‐wide fish production, studies have yet to include aquaculture fisheries sectors, thus eliminating possibility of assessing their relative importance identifying opportunities recycling. Using Norway as a case, this study presents results current‐status integrated fisheries, aquaculture, agriculture flow analysis identifies current...
Omega-3 EPA and DHA fatty acids are vital for human health, but current nutritional requirements greater than supply. This nutrient gap is poised to increase as demand increases the abundance of aquatic foods amount omega-3 they contain may dwindle due climate change overfishing. Identifying mitigating loss inefficiencies across global supply chain has great potential narrowing this gap. Here, using an optimization model, we show that humans could potentially by much 50% (reaching 630 kt...
Food waste (FW) generates large upstream and downstream emissions to the environment unnecessarily consumes natural resources, potentially affecting future food security. The ecological impacts of FW can be addressed by strategies prevention or recycling, including energy nutrient recovery. While recycling is often prioritized in practice, implications two remain poorly understood from a quantitative systems perspective. Here, we develop multilayer framework scenarios quantify on national...
Human interaction with ocean resources has historically been challenging due to the difficulties that arise when a terrestrial species aims at becoming successful in marine environment. Shipwrecks, for instance, have doomed coastal communities centuries, and even today fishing is one of deadliest sectors labor force. Similarly, human-induced environmental catastrophes, such as oil spills instance (Trevors & Saier, 2010), commonly laborious clean up inherent difficulty humans performing...
