In April 2018, the ambitious “Project for the Development of Monitoring Methods and Prediction System for Harmful Algal Blooms for Sustainable Aquaculture and Coastal Fisheries in Chile” began, also known as Algae Monitoring in Chile (MACH). , scientific and technological collaborative effort between Chile and Japan with a holistic-ecosystem view that recognizes that the phenomenon of Harmful Algal Blooms (HAB) depends on the environmental quality and the biotic diversity of the ecosystem, as a result of which collaborative relationships are established (mutualism) and antagonistic (parasitism) between microbial diversity and phytoplanktonic species.

The government of France has announced new changes to its Label Rouge quality mark, which the Scottish salmon industry says will help expand its markets.
Label Rouge is a French mark of quality originally established in the 1960s that places stringent quality standards on food producers. For Scotland-based salmon producers, Label Rouge has long been an important part of their overall marketing strategy in Europe, and the product was the first non-French product to ever be awarded the quality label.

New research on the use of waste is transforming the food and cosmetics industries, promoting the circular economy and creating new jobs.
In the food and cosmetics industry, sustainable resource management and waste minimization are increasingly priorities. A paradigmatic example of this trend is the innovative approach to the reuse of fish waste, which could revolutionize not only these industries, but also contribute significantly to the circular economy.
The European Union governs its fishing activity based on the Common Fisheries Policy. The initial objectives of this policy were to preserve fish stocks, protect the marine environment, ensure the economic viability of the Union's fleets and provide consumers with quality food. The community contribution is being lost and imports already reach 70% of the supply on the market. The successive reforms have not achieved their objectives and the means of production continue to decline. The global panorama does not correspond to the community panorama.

Icelandic fish farmer Matorka has overcome losses and damage caused by volcanic earthquakes, although it may yet choose to leave its treasured site
There is a lot for fish farmer Matorka to like about Grindavik. The water it extracts from boreholes in the volcanic rock at its land-based farm on the Icelandic peninsula is warmed by lava to almost 10°C, perfect for the Arctic char it grows.
The site is also supplied with clean geothermal electricity, and it is close to an airport and a seaport for easy export.

A few years ago, snow crab populations in Alaska collapsed. Hear how NOAA biologists solved the mystery of what happened to them
In October 2022, the Bering Sea snow crab season was canceled for the first time in U.S. history. Snow crab populations crashed unexpectedly and officials had no choice but to close the fishery. The next year, it happened again.
The decline of roughly 10 billion crabs hit fishermen hard and the entire industry was impacted—from distributors, to processors, to consumers. The value of the fishery went from $227 million to $0 in just 2 years. Making it all the more confounding was that snow crabs were abundant just a few years prior. So ... what happened?
In our new episode, we'll speak with Dr. Cody Szuwalski, a research fishery biologist and stock assessment scientist at NOAA's Alaska Fisheries Science Center. He is the lead author of a study examining the snow crab collapse. Tune in as we hear how NOAA biologists cracked the case of the mysterious Alaska snow crab collapse, what likely caused it, and why it matters.
