FHF has announced calls for projects in aquaculture and wild-capture fisheries. The calls relating to aquaculture cover the following topics: 

  • Developing new technologies for the removal of CO2 from water used in aquaculture operations; 
  • Generating knowledge about the rehabilitation of flora and fauna in the benthic environment below fish farms that have been fallowed or where operations have ceased; 
  • Developing new or improved sensors for the measurement of water quality; 
  • Obtaining knowledge about salmon’s need for vitamin D under various farming conditions, particularly in production systems with little or no access to natural light, but also during seasonal variations in conventional open-pen farming; 
  • Generating knowledge about Cand. Branchiomonas cysticola in relation to the development of gill disease in farmed salmonids, specifically around transmission routes, susceptibility, and disease course, as a foundation for better control and prevention measures.
