An integrated monitoring program for the Northern Prawn Fishery: assessing the design and developing techniques to incorporate survey results into fishery assessment

An international review of the Northern Prawn Fishery tiger prawn assessment was carried out in 2001. The review drew attention to the high level of uncertainty in the assessment and recommended that the logbook data be augmented by fishery-independent survey data. In response to the review,...

Value adding to fish processing waste through aquafeed development

The management and disposal of solid wastes from seafood processing, food manufacturing and allied industries is a major economic and environmental issue for Australian industry. Large quantities of wet waste of this nature are routinely disposed of to landfill at considerable cost to...

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...

Coastal stocks of fish: from which estuaries are most adults derived?

The origins of many stocks of fish are unknown. As juveniles, many fish are found in estuarine regions. After a period in these habitats they may leave estuaries for coastal reefs and shelf waters where they may be commercially fished. Currently, we do not know the proportion of...

Understanding recruitment collapse of juvenile abalone in the Eastern Zone Abalone fishery – development of pre-recruitment monitoring, simulation of recruitment variation and predicting the impact of climate variation

Over the past three decades the Tasmanian Eastern Zone Abalone Fishery has experienced several fluctuations in catch and catch rates of Blacklip Abalone as well as environmental perturbations, which may be affecting productivity. The capacity to measure inter-annual variation in Blacklip Abalone...

Development of acoustic methods to survey orange roughy in the eastern and southern zones

Three acoustic surveys were carried out between 17 and 20 July 1996 on the orange roughy spawning ground off St. Helens, Tasmania. A combination of 22 demersal trawls and ensonification with three frequencies (12, 38 and 120 kHz) was used to assess the species composition around the spawning hill....

Determination of the biological parameters required for managing the fisheries of four tuskfish species and western yellowfin bream

Data have been collected on the biology of western yellowfin bream and four tuskfish species that are of the type and quality required by managers for developing appropriate plans for conserving the stocks of these five commercial and recreational species. Emphasis was thus placed on determining (1)...
