Analysis of the microchemistry and stable isotopic composition of the otoliths of goldband snapper (Pristipomoides multidens) as an aid to the determination of stock structure

Measurement of stable isotope ratios of oxygen (18O:16O) and carbon (13C:12C) in the earstone (sagittal otolith) carbonate from assemblages of goldband snapper, Pristipomoides multidens, from waters off northern and western Australia revealed location-specific signatures and indicated that fish...

Demersal finfish resource assessment survey of the north-west slope of Western Australia

The nature and extent of demersal finfish resources in deep slope waters (>200m) off the northwest coast of Western Australia are poorly understood. Existing fish trawl, trap and line fishing effort is concentrated in shallower waters (<200m), while trawling in deep slope waters...
