  3. 3. Managing Mangrove Ecosystem Services for Local Livelihoods and Adaptations in Tanzania

    Författare :Baraka Nyangoko; Håkan Berg; Martin Gullström; Mwita Mangora; Mwanahija Shalli; Johan Hollander; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mangroves; ecosystem services; mangrove management; livelihoods; ecosystem-based adaptation; Tanzania; naturgeografi; Physical Geography;

    Sammanfattning : Recognizing the importance of ecosystem services (ES) for peoples' livelihoods and well-being is important for decision-making processes on conservation. Mangrove ecosystems in Tanzania are protected by law, but they continue to be exposed to degradation and loss, and there is still limited information about the awareness, preferences, status and trends of the ES they provide.

  4. 4. Crossing barriers: Genetic consequences of translocating wild cleaner fish for aquaculture

    Författare :Ellika Faust; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; conservation genetics; population genetics; aquaculture escapee; hybridisation; corkwing wrasse; lumpfish; cleaner fish translocation; sea lice; range expansion; fishery management;

    Sammanfattning : Several species of fish show a symbiotic cleaning behaviour, where they assist other species by feeding and removing dead skin or ectoparasites. Some of these cleaner fish species are used as a low-cost parasite control in salmon aquaculture, often considered to be more environmentally friendly than other delousing methods. LÄS MER
