Review of selected methods of macroalgae cultivation in the marine waters

Journal Title: Biuletyn Instytutu Morskiego - Year 2017, Vol 32, Issue 1

Abstract

The article presents methods of macroalgae cultivation performed worldwide in marine waters (long-lines, bottom planting, integrated cultivation). It describes variety of technical approaches and discusses the possibility of conducting macroalgae cultivation in the Polish marine areas. All presented methods can be tested in the Polish zone of the Baltic Sea, except integrated mariculture (IMTA). Species of Ulva genus can be considered for culturing, however there is a lack of wide-ranging studies bringing information on their biomass production on larger scale and detailed chemical content. The effectiveness of the cultivation will be restricted due to seasonal occurrence of species as the conditions prevailing in the Polish marine waters are not favourable to macroalgae cultivation. Thus, it is suggested to consider implementation of the project aiming at cultivation of perennial species Furcellaria lumbricalis (introduction of the species from the Gulf of Riga to the Puck Bay).<br/><br/>
