Aims and Scopes

The 'Boletim do Instituto de Pesca' is dedicated to advancing knowledge and research in the field of aquatic sciences, particularly focusing on fisheries and aquaculture. The journal emphasizes the importance of sustainable practices and environmental considerations within these domains.
  1. Aquatic Biodiversity and Ecology:
    Research on the diversity of aquatic species, their habitats, and ecological interactions, with an emphasis on conservation and management strategies.
  2. Aquaculture Practices and Innovations:
    Studies involving aquaculture techniques, including biofloc technology, dietary supplements, and larviculture methods, aiming to enhance production efficiency and fish health.
  3. Fisheries Management and Policy:
    Analysis of fisheries management practices, regulations, and the socio-economic aspects of fisheries, ensuring sustainable exploitation of aquatic resources.
  4. Environmental Impact Assessments:
    Investigations into the environmental effects of aquaculture and fishing practices, including studies on water quality, habitat alteration, and species interactions.
  5. Fish Physiology and Health:
    Research into the physiological responses of fish to various environmental conditions, dietary influences, and health management strategies.
Recent publications in the 'Boletim do Instituto de Pesca' indicate a clear trend towards innovative practices in aquaculture, environmental sustainability, and the application of technology in fisheries management. These emerging themes reflect the evolving landscape of aquatic research.
  1. Biofloc Technology in Aquaculture:
    There is a growing emphasis on biofloc technology, which enhances shrimp and fish farming efficiency. Research is increasingly focused on optimizing feeding strategies and improving health outcomes in aquaculture systems.
  2. Sustainability and Environmental Compliance:
    Recent studies are increasingly addressing compliance with environmental regulations, such as the Brazilian Forest Code, indicating a trend towards integrating sustainable practices into aquaculture and fisheries.
  3. Genetic and Physiological Studies:
    Emerging research is focusing on the genetic and physiological aspects of fish species, including studies on sex reversal and growth responses, which are essential for improving aquaculture practices.
  4. Integrated Multitrophic Aquaculture:
    There is a notable rise in studies exploring integrated multitrophic aquaculture, which promotes ecological balance and resource efficiency by combining different species in farming systems.
  5. Technological Applications in Fisheries:
    The application of technology, including GIS and simulation modeling, is increasingly evident in fisheries studies, reflecting a trend towards data-driven management and assessment strategies.

Declining or Waning

While the journal continues to publish a wide range of aquatic research, certain themes appear to be declining in frequency or relevance over recent years. This shift may reflect changing priorities in research focus or a saturation of previous studies.
  1. Traditional Fishing Techniques:
    Research focusing on traditional or artisanal fishing methods has become less prominent, possibly due to a shift towards more sustainable and technology-driven approaches in fisheries.
  2. Invasive Species Impact Studies:
    While still relevant, papers specifically addressing the impacts of invasive species are appearing less frequently, indicating a potential shift towards broader ecological studies or management strategies.
  3. Aquatic Plant Studies:
    Research on aquatic plants, particularly their cultivation and environmental roles, has seen a decline, possibly overshadowed by more pressing issues in fish and shrimp aquaculture.
