 Call for Special Sessions, Oral Presentations, and Posters
Join us for a discussion about energy use in commercial and recreational fisheries, aquaculture operations, and the processing and marketing of fish. We'll address improved efficiency and technological innovations from a global perspective with a focus on:
- increased profits by reducing energy costs;
- reducing the carbon footprint of fisheries production on the environment;
- near and over the horizon energy saving technologies to reduce energy costs;
- regulatory changes to reduce energy costs and greenhouse gas emissions;
- alternative fuels and distribution systems to reduce energy demands; and
- changes in boat, power plant, and gear design to increase fuel efficiencies.
