The journal Aquaculture Research is a well-established and independent journal covering research on production of all aquatic organisms, floristic and faunistic, related directly or indirectly to human consumption. The Journal publishes hypothesis-driven papers on applied or scientific research relevant to freshwater aquaculture; brackish water aquaculture; and marine aquaculture, including:

• Breeding and selection in fish farming
• Nutritional and dietary requirements in aquaculture
• Environmental conditions affecting the growth of farmed fish
• Effects of fish farming on the aquatic environment

Aquaculture Research is international in perspective and thus attracts research papers that advance scientific understanding in the various research topics important to aquaculture production.
