Combined effect of body weight, temperature and salinity on shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei oxygen consumption rate

Aiming to optimize the calculations of mechanical aeration requirements in Litopenaeus vannamei marine shrimp cultures, oxygen consumption was quantified in combined conditions of temperature (20, 25 and 30ºC) and salinity (1, 13, 25 and 37 ‰) at three body weights (2, 6 and 12 g) for juvenile L. va...
