Movement and re-aggregation of blacklip abalone in response to intensive fishing

Typically abalone are found clustered into aggregations of many individuals along gutters and ledges that dissect the surfaces of the reefs they inhabit. Commercial abalone divers take advantage of this clustering behaviour and specifically target aggregations to minimise the time spent searching...
