Climate Change on Diseases and Disorders of Finfish in Cage Culture 3rd Edition

Grab attention with a concise, authoritative resource that addresses one of aquaculture’s most urgent challenges. Climate Change on Diseases and Disorders of Finfish in Cage Culture, 3rd Edition is a must-have reference for aquaculture managers, researchers, veterinarians, and policy makers wrestling with shifting disease patterns in cage-farmed fish.

This updated edition explains how rising temperatures, altered salinity, hypoxia, and extreme weather events change pathogen dynamics, host immunity, and farm biosecurity. Clear chapters translate complex science into practical insights: diagnosis and monitoring strategies, pathogen life-cycles affected by climate variables, case studies from tropical, temperate, and coastal waters across Asia, Africa, Europe, and the Americas, and risk-assessment frameworks tailored to cage culture systems.

Readers will find pragmatic guidance for designing climate-resilient health programs—early-warning surveillance, adaptive stocking and feed practices, water quality management, and integrated disease mitigation. Emphasis on real-world applications makes the book invaluable for farm operators seeking to reduce losses and for extension professionals developing regional adaptation plans.

What sets this third edition apart is its synthesis of recent research with actionable protocols and policy-relevant recommendations. Whether you oversee a small coastal operation or work on national aquaculture policy, this book equips you to anticipate emerging threats and implement evidence-based responses that protect stock health and profitability.
