Revolutionising fish ageing: Using Near Infrared Spectroscopy to Age Fish

This project was developed because of preliminary data relating to the use of Near Infra Red Spectrometry (NIRS) to age saddletailed seaperch. This study found that it was possible to construct an NIRS algorithum which could be used to predict the age of fish from their otoliths with a high degree...

RAC WA: Demographic Performance of Brownlip Abalone: Exploration of Wild and Cultured Harvest Potential

Greenlip is the predominant abalone species caught by commercial fisheries in Western Australia, so much so that brownlip abalone was considered a by-catch with no fixed total allowable catch (TAC) until 13 years ago. Over the years brownlip abalone has become an increasingly important component of...

Optimising the collection of relative abundance data for the pipi population in New South Wales

This application seeks funding for work that has not previously been done in NSW but is required to assist in the development of new management arrangements for the commercial harvest of pipis (Donax deltoides) in NSW. Consequently, the research has been assigned a high priority across commercial,...
