international workshop “larviculture of marine invertebrates: present status and future directions”


January 7-11, 2002

Universidad Austral de Chile, Puerto Montt, Chile

 

Under sponsorship of FONDEF-CONICYT

Organized by:

Instituto de Acuicultura

Universidad Austral, Puerto Montt, Chile

afarias@uach.cl, smarin@uach.cl

 

Aims:

1.       To compare physiological and ecological behavior of larvae and post-larvae of marine invertebrate species under controlled laboratory and field conditions, and to evaluate its implications for larviculture.

2.       To understand the major problems and advances in the larviculture of molluscs, crustaceans, and other invertebrates.

3.       To evaluate the development of larval and post-larval cycles through a model that simulate the production responses to changing conditions in these life stages.

4.       To integrate the knowledge achieved in laboratory and field research, combining all disciplines studying marine invertebrate larvae and post-larvae.
