The aims of this project were to:
Quantify density-dependent effects on wild abalone growth and meat quality
Develop a statistical tool for classification of shell age
Use length-based models to test the adequacy of shell age performance measures
Use length-based models to determine...
The project has developed tools for low cost assessment of the giant crab resource across southern Australia.
Stock assessment and management response is now increasingly based on biomass estimates from this project. Risk of poor management decisions is thus reduced, which...
Tagging is an important tool for estimating key fisheries parameters such as fishing mortality, natural mortality and growth. This project identified the need for future tagging projects to undertake preliminary studies to determine the impact of tagging on both growth and survival, and we developed...
