Improving early detection surveillance and emergency disease response to Pacific Oyster Mortality Syndrome (POMS) using a hydrodynamic model for dispersion of OsHV-1

Rapid predictive capability of viral spread through water during an aquatic disease outbreak is an epidemiologist’s dream, and up until now has not been achievable. A biophysical particle tracking model for Ostreid herpesvirus 1 microvariant (OsHV-1) that causes POMS was developed to determine...

SCRC: Measuring condition of lobsters to improve management of harvesting around periods of high transport mortality

This project provides the first comprehensive quantitative assessment of the health, physiological and nutritional condition of brindle and red lobsters from four different fishing areas of Tasmania at the start of the 2015 fishing season. Lobsters size (carapace length), baseline concentrations of...

Catch-at-age, age at first spawning, historical changes in growth, and natural mortality of SBT: an integrated study of key uncertainties in population biology and dynamics of SBT, based on direct estimates of age from otoliths

The CCSBT has recognized for a number of years that a better understanding of the population biology and demographics of southern bluefin tuna (SBT) is necessary for improved population modeling and stock assessments. In 1996, the CCSBT Scientific Committee identified three areas where our...

Diagnosis and prevention of the mid-crop mortality syndrome of pond-reared black tiger prawns (Penaeus monodon)

The project has created knowledge which has led to the outcome of better health management on Australian prawn farms. Changes to farm practices have occurred where whole-farm destocking and pond disinfection are applied as a hygiene practice following a season where crop declines or failures are...

Immuno-staining of a ciliate protozoan causing significant mortalilty of farmed tuna: the development of a rapid identification technique which will enable improved farm management practices to be implemented to minimise fish mortality

An immunofluorescent staining technique for the rapid detection of the ciliate protozoan Uronema sp. was developed during 1995 and 1996. The initial test was developed using seven cultures of Uronema sp. from various sources which were identified as Uronema nigricans by microscopical and...
