Description
The degradation of hawaii's nearshore environment, coupled with overharvesting, has resulted in the depletion of endemic and indigenous seaweeds known locally in hawaii as "limu". Limu enhance the biodiversity and structural complexity of hawaii's nearshore habitats and many species are culturally important to native hawaiians as food, medicine, and ceremonial adornments. This project will focus on the development of an integrated multitrophic aquaculture (IMTA) system for limu culture using nutrients supplied by "FED" aquaculture systems, as well as a traditional hawaiian fishpond. This approach will provide hawaii's aquafarmers with a tool to mitigate negative impacts of nutrient-rich effluent while creating a consistent source of limu for hawaii's local communities involved in limu restoration. Oceanic institute of hawaii pacific university (OI) will collaborate with paepae O he'eia, which operates an ancient hawaiian fishpond, to develop limu CUL
