Aquacultural Engineering (AE)
Journal Descriptions
Aquacultural Engineering is a leading international peer‑reviewed journal dedicated to advancing engineering science and technology in aquaculture systems. Established in 1982, it provides a platform for high‑quality research that integrates engineering principles with biological production systems to improve efficiency, sustainability, and performance of aquaculture facilities worldwide. The journal focuses on fundamental and applied engineering challenges in the design, construction, operation, and optimization of marine and freshwater aquaculture systems. Topics include engineering design of culture facilities, recirculating aquaculture system (RAS) technology, hydrodynamics, water quality management, system automation, materials selection, mechanical equipment, biofilm and solid handling, fluid‑structure interactions, and scaling from experimental data to operational applications. Because aquaculture often involves complex interactions between physical and biological factors, the journal emphasizes multidisciplinary approaches that quantify constraints and propose practical engineering solutions. Contributions range from original research articles evaluating system behavior to case studies describing construction experience and innovative operational techniques. Published bimonthly, Aquacultural Engineering supports exchange among scientists, engineers, technologists, and industry practitioners seeking to deploy efficient, cost‑effective, and sustainable aquaculture solutions. It is indexed in major scientific databases including Scopus and the Science Citation Index Expanded (SCIE).
