from the English common law system, with private property and 

 public-trust or common rights, the latter applying to submerged 

 coastal lands and tidelands. Presumptions of ownership. 

 Federal- Stat € conflicts, and court cases ensued. The Hawaiian 

 system was closer to that of Japan until the U.S. Congress 

 manifested its intent to preclude private fishing rights in the 

 territorial legislation of 1900, except for ponds or artificially 

 enclosed areas. Again, court cases ensued and the situation is 

 uncertain, thereby serving as a disincentive to investment in 

 aguacult ure.

1968. 



The status and potential of aquaculture, parts 1, 2 and 3. 



Clearinghouse Fed. Sci. Tech. Inform., 531 pp. (The publisher 



supplies vol. 1, containing parts 1 and 2 as PB 177 767, and vol. 



2, containing parts 1 and 3 as PB 177 768.) 



Part 1 includes introduction, general principles, conclusions, 



summary and recommendations; part 2, shellfish; part 3, finfish. 



While it was not possible for the authors to conduct an 



exhaustive survey of aguacultural practices for the world, they 



did select examples which are representative of as many as 



possible of the different species of organisms in culture, the 



different countries or regions of the world with respect to 



climate, race, and economic development where aquaculture is 



carried out, and the different levels of intensity and 



technological sophistication which are in use and may be included 



within the broad definition of aquaculture. For each example, as 



much information as possible has been obtained on the basic 



biology and ecology of the organism in culture, the procedures 



and techniques employed in the practice, and yields and economics 



of the operation, if commercial. (Authors' statement modified.)
