Abstract

1. Marine aquaculture relies on coastal habitats that will be affected by climate change. This review assessescurrent knowledge of the threats and opportunities of climate change for aquaculture in the UK and Ireland,focusing on the most commonly farmed species, blue mussels (Mytilus edulis) and Atl...
