Marine oils from Australian fish: characterisation and value added products

Fish contain an array of oils, which vary markedly between species. The waste, by-catch and by­products from the Australian :fishing industry can therefore be value-added to yield a range of marine oils. It is estimated that 100 000 tonnes per annum of the Australian fish catch goes to waste....

Abalone Aquaculture Subprogram: optimisation of essential lipids in artificial feeds for Australian abalone

Lipids and in particular polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) are important for a number of physiological functions in animals. PUFA are also major components of cellular membranes. Many marine animals cannot synthesise "essential" PUFA de novo and therefore serious deficiency signs such...

Increased production of juvenile Pacific oysters (Crassostrea gigas) through supplementary feeding

The standard method for growing the early stages of juvenile Pacific oysters is to hold them in systems called upwellers in land-based nurseries. Seawater is pumped through to provide the oysters with food particles. Growth rates of oysters cultured using this method were highly variable at Pipe...

Development, application and evaluation of the use of remotely sensed data by Australian fisheries

The genesis of this project was in 1992 when we foresaw the arrival of a range of new remote sensing systems, and the opportunity to utilize an increasing archive of sea-surface temperature images, which could be of potential benefit to fisheries operations and management. We sought to develop,...

Habitat and fisheries production in the South East Fishery ecosystem

In 1994 CSIRO and FRDC started a 5-year ecosystem study of the southeastern Australian continental shelf. Fisheries management in this area is currently based on individual species. Our goal was to identify ecosystem features that could extend the data available to manage the fisheries in this...

Effects of seasonal and interannual variability of the ocean environment on recruitment to the fisheries of Western Australia

The relatively high catch of invertebrate species in Western Australia compared to finfish is in sharp contrast to other regions of the world where finfish production usually dominates. This low level of finfish production is primarily due to the Leeuwin Current which brings warm, low nutrient...

Development of software for use in multi-frequency acoustic biomass assessments and ecological studies

The development of the ECHO software has enabled the collection and analysis of large multifrequency acoustic data sets. The data can now be processed in a timely manner (via overlays) to quality assure and interpret underlying acoustic characteristics in the signals. From these analyses we can...
