Abstract
ABSTRACTFuture tropical commercial marine cage culturing systems, for use in exposed coastal sites, are evaluated through a case study approach. Preliminary design options, based on an optimistic extrapolation of present knowledge and capabilities, are developed for projected Hawaiian systems. The effects of different scales of operation on the choices of technical approaches, support activities, and system economics are considered. The resulting designs are also evaluated with respect to economic and bioengineering risks. The problems that must be resolved are indicated in the context of their scientific, technical and economic impacts on such culture systems. It is clear that tropical sea cage culturing of high value food fish has considerable economic potential, even at modest scales of operation.
