水產養殖工程是指為海洋和淡水設施設計和開發有效的水產養殖系統。該雜志的目標是將基礎研究中獲得的知識應用到商業運作中。擴大和應用研究數據的問題涉及許多參數，包括物理和生物參數，因此很難預測單元過程和培養動物之間的相互作用。水產養殖工程旨在開發水產養殖生物工程接口，歡迎在以下領域作出貢獻:-水產養殖設施的工程和設計-以工程為基礎的研究工作-施工經驗和技術-在職經驗，調試，操作-材料選擇及其用途-生物數據和限制的量化表達方式是靈活的，但是那些處理具體問題的論文應該嘗試從系統工程、量化約束、提出解決方案、實現和詳細設計以及最后評估結果等方面對它們進行清晰的定義。

Aquacultural Engineering is concerned with the design and development of effective aquacultural systems for marine and freshwater facilities. The journal aims to apply the knowledge gained from basic research which potentially can be translated into commercial operations.Problems of scale-up and application of research data involve many parameters, both physical and biological, making it difficult to anticipate the interaction between the unit processes and the cultured animals. Aquacultural Engineering aims to develop this bioengineering interface for aquaculture and welcomes contributions in the following areas:– Engineering and design of aquaculture facilities– Engineering-based research studies– Construction experience and techniques– In-service experience, commissioning, operation– Materials selection and their uses– Quantification of biological data and constraintsStyle of presentation is flexible, but those papers dealing with specific problems should attempt to define them clearly in terms of systems engineering, quantifying the constraints, proposing solutions, implementing and detailing the design, and finally evaluating the outcome.
