Summary

Aquatic Farming explores the critical role of aquaculture, or aquatic farming, in meeting global food demands while protecting marine ecosystems. It examines the science and practices behind farming fish, shellfish, and algae, offering a balanced view of its potential and challenges. The book highlights how sustainable aquaculture can alleviate pressure on wild fish populations and contribute to economic growth in coastal regions. Readers will discover the historical evolution of aquatic farming, from ancient techniques to modern industrial operations, and how past environmental missteps have shaped current practices.

 
The book progresses logically, beginning with foundational concepts such as farmed species biology and aquatic ecosystem management. It then delves into crucial aspects like nutritional needs, disease control, and genetic improvements in aquaculture. A unique aspect is its focus on integrating ecological principles into aquaculture management, offering solutions to minimize environmental impacts like habitat destruction and pollution.

 
Case studies from various regions illustrate both successful and unsuccessful ventures, providing valuable insights for practitioners and policymakers alike. Ultimately, Aquatic Farming champions sustainable aquaculture as a viable path toward food security, provided it adheres to scientific principles and responsible management. By presenting complex information in an accessible manner and drawing upon diverse research fields, the book equips readers with the knowledge to make informed decisions about the future of aquatic farming and its impact on our world.

    The water cycle, also known as the hydrological cycle, is a continuous and dynamic process that moves water throughout the Earth's atmosphere, surface, and underground reservoirs. This cycle plays a vital role in sustaining ecosystems, regulating climate, and supporting human life. Water undergoes various transformations as it moves through different stages, driven by the energy of the sun and the force of gravity. 
    One of the fundamental processes of the water cycle is evaporation, where water from oceans, lakes, rivers, and even soil turns into water vapor due to heat from the sun. Plants also contribute to this process through transpiration, where they release moisture from their leaves into the air. Together, these processes add significant amounts of water vapor to the atmosphere. As the air rises and cools, this vapor undergoes condensation, forming clouds composed of tiny water droplets or ice crystals. 
    When these droplets combine and become heavy enough, precipitation occurs in the form of rain, snow, sleet, or hail. Precipitation is the primary way water returns to the Earth's surface, replenishing water bodies and providing essential moisture for plant and animal life. Depending on the terrain and environmental conditions, this water can take several different paths. Some of it infiltrates into the ground, recharging underground aquifers in a process known as groundwater recharge. Other portions of the water flow overland as surface runoff, eventually collecting in rivers, lakes, and oceans. This runoff helps shape landscapes by eroding and transporting sediments over time.

    Humans are the most intelligent beings this planet has ever produced. But how is it that we find ourselves faced with an existential crisis that threatens to overwhelm us? 
     
     
     
    Leading archaeogeneticist Johannes Krause and journalist Thomas Trappe investigate what DNA can tell us about how we got where we are and what our future might be. They show how the first humans were defeated again and again and suffered fatal setbacks, and how Homo sapiens succeeded in conquering continents, overcoming natural borders, and bringing other species under its control. But the genetic blueprint that enabled us to get to the place where we are today had one flaw: it didn't factor in planetary boundaries. Now that we are approaching those boundaries for the first time after millions of years of evolution, an urgent question arises: can we learn to live within the planetary limits, or are we doomed by our DNA to continue to expand, consume, and absorb the resources around us to the point of exhaustion, consigning ourselves and other species to extinction? 
     
     
     
    While the looming climate crisis does not augur well for humanity's capacity to adapt to the new situation in which it finds itself, we are not at the mercy of our DNA—or at least we don't have to be. But can we harness the lessons of the past to survive the present?
