During the entire course of the experiment, the general growth
performance of G. chilensis cultivated on suspended long-lines, near
the salmon cages, was always better than at the control site Isla Tabón
(L3) and at the bottom culture site at Metri (L4) (Fig. 3). G. chilensis
presented higher growth rates during the summer, coincident with
higher water temperatures and photon fluence rates measured at that
Fig. 3.
