    • Effect of organic nitrogen and carbon mineralization on sediment organic matter accumulation in fish ponds 

      Jiménez, Ricardo; Verdegem, Marc; van Dam, Anne A.; Verreth, Johan (Aquaculture Research, 2005-07-01)
      In aquaculture, ponds with high loads of organic inputs, organic matter accumulates at the bottom over time. Uneaten feed, senescent phytoplankton and faeces are the principal sources of accumulated material, but quanti¢cations ...
    • Nitrogen budget and fluxes in Colossoma macropomum ponds 

      Jiménez, Ricardo; Avnimelech, Yoram; Verreth, Johan; Verdegem, Marc (Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2005-07-01)
      This study quanti¢ed the accumulation of nitrogen (N) in the water column, sediments, ¢sh and seepage water during a production cycle of Colossoma macropomum. By combining estimates of the deposition rates of uneaten feed, ...
