Can DNA from routine plankton surveys be used to measure fish spawning areas and monitor changes in pelagic ecosystems?

The benefits of establishing long-term ecological programs to monitor ocean health are recognised internationally (Koslow and Couture, Nature 2015). The few programs that have been established (e.g. off California) have provided important insights into long-term changes in the system (i.e. reduced...

Improving Southern Rock Lobster on-vessel handling practices, data collection and industry tools for lobster quality assessment

The Australian Southern rock lobster (SRL, Jasus edwardsii) fishery is largely reliant on an international live lobster market. The increased value of lobsters and reliance on live export has meant that even low levels of stock losses or poor product quality can have significant financial or brand...

Understanding population structure and dynamics of Victoria’s developing Octopus fishery

Pale octopus (Octopus pallidus) is distributed from the Great Australian Bight around Tasmania to southern New South Wales. It is a medium-sized (up to 1.2 kg) holobenthic octopus which has a lifespan of 12 to 18 months (Leporati et al. 2009). Females produce 200 to 400 large (11 mm) eggs per...

Examining the potential impacts of seismic surveys on Octopus and larval stages of Southern Rock Lobster

3D Marine seismic surveys (MSS) are typically used by the petroleum industry to locate potential oil and gas deposits. In Australia, the National Offshore Petroleum Safety and Environmental Management Authority (NOPSEMA) requires an Environmental Plan (EP) be developed to demonstrate that the MSS...

Resolving the biological stock structure of Southern Ocean crab fisheries

Sustainable fisheries management requires information on factors that influence the resilience of individual fishing stocks to fishing pressure and environmental disturbance. This includes understanding the geographic boundaries of biological populations and the recruitment potential of individual...

Can novel seismic survey sources mitigate potential impacts to fisheries?

Marine seismic surveys, which operate arrays of air guns to produce intense, low frequency impulsive noise, are typically used by the petroleum industry to locate potential oil and gas deposits. In Australia, NOPSEMA requires an Environmental Plan (EP) be developed to demonstrate that the MSS will...
