The bioassay section of this study provides, for the first time, estimations of lethal and growth reducing concentrations for the major production-limiting water quality variables for P. monodon. These critical concentrations were assessed using comparable experimental facilities and procedures....

The purpose of this report is to describe the methods used for tagging redfish and discuss the results achieved by the various segments of the project. In conjunction with the tagging study, data on commercial catches of redfish, fishing effort and catch length frequency were also analysed, and the...
