IMTA Training material: the INTEGRATE IMTA interviews by The Scottish Association for Marine Science (SAMS)

Below you will find a series of interviews with INTEGRATE partners examining their thoughts about the current state of IMTA in their countries, and the challenges facing development in the near future:

 

IMTA Training material: Ecological Intensification of Aquaculture by the Portuguese Institute of the Sea and the Atmosphere (IPMA)

In Portuguese, this presentation prepared by Emilia Cunha looks at the Ecological Intensification of Aquaculture, and how IMTA may influence it, and was presented to the ‘Jornadas do Mar’ seminar in late 2019:

IMTA Training material: Seaweed Guide in IMTA and Sustainable Aquaculture by the Algae Technology and Innovation Centre (CEVA)

CEVA present a guide to seaweeds and their use in IMTA and sustainable aquaculture – a presentation looking at practical ways that seaweed can be incorporated into IMTA culture:

IMTA Training material: Video and Factsheets by the Irish Seaweed Consultancy (ISC) and the National University of Ireland, Galway (NUIG)

The following factsheets developed by the Irish Seaweed Consultancy (ISC) provide a summary of the current status of cultivation research in selected red and green seaweeds across the Atlantic Area:

INTEGRATE ISC Factsheet 1: Seaweed Aquaculture in the Atlantic Area: Red Seaweeds (Rhodophyceae)
INTEGRATE ISC Factsheet 2: Seaweed Aquaculture in the Atlantic Area: Green Seaweeds (Chlorophyceae) and Brown Seaweeds (Phaeophyceae)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The following video as well as 3 factsheets, developed by the National University of Ireland, Galway (NUIG), describe the general principles involved in the design, establishment and managing of IMTA recirculation systems:
