European lobster Homarus gammarus aquaculture: Technical developments, opportunities and requirements
Abstract The European lobster ( Homarus gammarus ) has been the subject of aquaculture and related research efforts for the last 150 years, due to both the wild fishery and cultural value of the species. Since the middle of the 20th century, increasing anthropogenic pressure has led to a severe decl...
