Assessment of the use of copper alloy aquaculture nets: Potential impacts on the marine environment and on the farmed fish

In this manuscript, a set of methodological tools and indicators were studied in order to assess the potential impacts of the use of copper alloy aquaculture nets on farmed fish and, eventually, the marine environment of the Mediterranean Sea. The authors believe that the aim of this work is within the journal's scope and the presented results, analysis and interpretation will be of interest to scientists involved in various aspects of aquaculture (management, environmental pollution, ecotoxicology, food safety etc.).
