Aquatic Species

OMICS International has published 53 Open Access Articles, 230 Conference Proceedings, 3 Upcoming Conferences, 1 Previous Conferences related to aquatic species.

Aquatic species or animal is an animal, either vertebrate or invertebrate, which lives in water for most or all of its life. It may breathe air or extract its oxygen from that dissolved in water through specialised organs called gills, or directly through its skin. Aquatic animals pertain to animals that live predominantly in different water forms, such as seas, oceans, rivers, lakes, ponds, etc. Examples of aquatic animals include fish, jellyfish, sharks, whales, octopus, barnacle, sea otters, crocodiles, crabs, dolphins, eels, rays, mussels, and so on. Aquatic plants, on the other hand, are plants found in those habitats, such as water hyacinth, water lettuce, water fern, duckweed, water lilies, and watergrass. And these habitats where aquatic animals and plants live on are referred to as aquatic habitats. Aquatic habitats may be freshwater, marine, or brackish water. Organisms possess morphological and anatomical adaptations that enable them to live and thrive in aquatic habitats . Aquatic animals that can move freely using their fins or tentalces, and other locomotory organelles to propel themselves in an aquatic medium. Movements, such as diving and swimming, are examples of an aquatic locomotion.

OMICS International Organizes 1000+ Global events Every Year across USA, Europe and Asia with support from 1000 more scientific societies and Publishes 700+ Open access journals which contains over 100000 eminent personalities, reputed scientists as editorial board and organizing committee members. The conference series website will provide you list and details about the conference organize worldwide.

Scope and Importance:

Since the aquatic hitchhiker issue first gained notoriety in the Great Lakes region, initial efforts to reduce the continued spread were centered in that area. However, subsequent research has indicated that aquatic nuisance species are a problem for many ports and inland waterways of the U.S. In 1996, Congress acted upon these finding and re-authorized the original federal legislation by enacting the National Invasive Species Act. This law expanded the scope of the issue beyond the Great Lakes and required the Coast Guard to establish national voluntary ballast water guidelines. In July of 1999, the National Voluntary Guidelines were implemented for all waters of the United States.As the issue has emerged and has become better understood by resource professionals, the impacts across are becoming more widely known. As a result, various regions have been identified as areas that are highly susceptible to aquatic hitchhikers.San Francisco Bay, a center of extensive international trade, hosts more than 210 introduced aquatic species. For nearly 150 years, this highly disturbed and vulnerable ecosystem has been exposed to continuous, large-scale introduction of non-native species through activities associated with commercial shipping and oyster farming. The importation of commercial oysters has allowed non-native species to hitchhike on the shells of oysters and packing materials shipped from the eastern U.S. coast and Japan. In the last decade, a new species has arrived about every 12 weeks.

Market Analysis:

In USA as aquaculture species or the farming of aquatic organisms continues to expand and intensify provisions for waste management become very important issues for both producers and environmental regulatory officials. There are a number of types of aquaculture and their environmental impacts are highly varied. For example intensive culture of finfish in tanks or netpens requires the addition of prepared feeds, with attendant waste management problems, but in Europe culture of filter feeding bivalve mollusks or seaweeds may actually cleanse or remove nutrients from effluent waters. A proper waste management plan is needed to maintain the legality, profitability and environmental soundness of any aquaculture facility. Middle East Typical wastes from an aquaculture facility may include feces and nutrients from excretion by aquatic animals, as well as uneaten feeds and chemicals such as therapeutant and cleanser residues. Aquaculture species involves in a significant discharge of waste into lakes, rivers, estuaries or any other receiving waters it may cause adverse environmental impacts. In order to prevent these adverse impacts from occurring, regulations on discharges into receiving waters have been or are in the process of being established. In Asia most cases, aquaculture facilities are not given permits unless there is a waste management plan that meets applicable local, state and federal environmental regulations. The intent of this fact sheet is to: a) describe the waste effluents produced by aquaculture facilities, b) to serve as a guide for water quality regulators and aquaculturists interested in discharge permitting, and c) to provide information for using dilution models in freshwater and coastal water bodies.
