abstract = "Fisheries and aquaculture are important sources of food for
hundreds of millions of people around the world. World fish
production is projected to increase by 15% in the next 10 years,
reaching around 200 million tonnes per year. The main driver of
this increase will be based on fish farming management in
developing countries. In Brazil, fish farming is increasing due to
the climate conditions and large supply of water resources, with
the production system based on Nile tilapia (Oreochromis
niloticus) farming in reservoirs. Inland waters like reservoirs
are a natural source of methane (CH4) to the atmosphere. However,
knowledge of the impact from intensive fish production in net
cages on CH4 fluxes is not well known. This paper presents in situ
measurements of CH4 fluxes and dissolved CH4 (DM) in the Furnas
Hydroelectric Reservoir in order to evaluate the impact of fish
farming on methane emissions. Measurements were taken in a control
area without fish production and three areas with fish farming.
The overall mean of diffusive methane flux (DMF) (5.9 ± 4.5 mg CH4
m\−2 day\−1) was significantly lower when compared
to the overall mean of bubble methane flux (BMF) (552.9 ± 1003.9
mg CH4 m\−2 day\−1). The DMF and DM were
significantly higher in the two areas with fish farming, whereas
the BMF was not significantly different. The DMF and DM were
correlated to depth and chlorophyll-a. However, the low production
of BMF did not allow the comparison with the limnological
parameters measured. This case study shows that CH4 emissions are
influenced more by reservoir characteristics than fish production.
Further investigation is necessary to assess the impact of fish
farming on the greenhouse gas emissions.",
