Trending and Emerging
- Sustainable Aquaculture Practices:
Research focusing on sustainable methods in aquaculture, such as biofloc technology and integrated multi-trophic aquaculture, has surged, reflecting a global push towards environmentally friendly fish farming. - Food Safety and Quality Control:
There is an increasing emphasis on ensuring food safety in seafood production, with studies exploring antimicrobial resistance, pathogen detection, and innovative preservation techniques gaining prominence. - Climate Change Adaptation:
Research addressing the impacts of climate change on fish populations and fisheries practices is emerging, highlighting the need for adaptive strategies in management and conservation efforts. - Functional Foods and Nutraceuticals from Seafood:
The exploration of health benefits associated with seafood consumption and the development of functional food products are trending, driven by consumer interest in health and wellness. - Technological Innovations in Fisheries:
There is a growing interest in the application of new technologies, such as satellite monitoring for fisheries management and the use of nanomaterials in seafood processing, indicating a shift towards integrating technology in fisheries.
Declining or Waning
- Traditional Fishing Methods:
Research on traditional fishing practices has diminished, possibly due to a shift towards modern, technology-driven approaches and a focus on sustainability over heritage practices. - Basic Biological Studies of Common Species:
There has been a noticeable reduction in studies focusing solely on the basic biological aspects of widely caught species, as the journal has shifted towards applied research with immediate implications for aquaculture and fisheries management. - Aquatic Plant Studies:
Research centered on aquatic plants, such as seaweeds unrelated to their economic or nutritional applications, appears to be waning as the journal emphasizes more commercially relevant topics. - General Reviews on Fisheries:
The frequency of broad review articles summarizing general fisheries knowledge has decreased, likely as the journal aims to provide more specific, targeted research findings that can influence practice and policy.
