Southern California Offshore Aquaculture Gear and Protected Species Interactions Workshop : Workshop Summary, June 20-21, 2019

The workshop provided a wide range of information to participants on protected marine species in the southern California region , aquaculture farm design and operational management, and both available and desired tools to assess risk, inform the permitting process and develop appropriate monitoring protocols ( see workshop agenda -Appendix I) . Participants engaged in a series of small group interactive sessions, followed by open group discussion, which identified knowledge gaps and research needs, explored how to assess risk in the absence of data and information , and highlighted challenges and opportunities to using a newly developed species model and farm simulator tool. The workshop culminated with a discussion of key takeaway messages , insights and emerging considerations that will guide future collaboration across agencies and with industry practitioners and experts. 2019 NMFS (National Marine Fisheries Service) WCR (West Coast Region) Submitted https://doi.org/10.25923/9n5n-ft71 Public Domain 1862

本次研讨会向参会者全面介绍了南加州地区受保护海洋物种、水产养殖养殖场设计与运营管理，以及可用于开展风险评估、辅助许可审批流程及制定适宜监测规程的现有及拟用工具等多方面内容（详见研讨会议程——附录I）。参会者依次参与了多组小组互动研讨环节，随后开展了全体公开讨论，期间明确了当前存在的知识空白与研究需求，探讨了在缺乏数据与相关信息的情况下如何开展风险评估，并剖析了应用新近开发的物种模型与养殖场模拟器工具所面临的挑战与潜在机遇。本次研讨会最终以围绕核心收获要点、洞察观点与新兴考量方向的讨论落下帷幕，上述内容将为后续跨机构协作以及与行业从业者、专家的合作提供指引。2019年 美国国家海洋渔业局（NMFS，National Marine Fisheries Service）西海岸区域（WCR，West Coast Region）提交，DOI：https://doi.org/10.25923/9n5n-ft71，公有领域，1862
