Aquaculture engineering requires knowledge of the many general aspects of engineering such as material technology, building design and construction, mechanical engineering and environmental engineering. In this comprehensive book, Odd-Ivar Lekang introduces these principles and demonstrates how such technical knowledge can be applied to aquaculture systems, offering the reader coverage including: 606 $aAquacultural engineering 615 0$aAquacultural engineering. 676 $a639.8 700 $aLekang$b Odd-Ivar$0865322 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996203963303316 996 $aAquaculture engineering$91931413 997 $aUNISA
