This report presents the results of an FRDC project that audited research effort and industry adoption for aquaculture species in Australia and overseas. The goal was to identify opportunities and barriers for commercial aquaculture production. The study involved online surveys, one for scientists...
This report details work undertaken by CSIRO and RMIT University for the National Carp Control Plan (NCCP). The present study develops a series of interrelated hydrological, ecological, and epidemiological models that enable the development of a strategy to inform feasibility assessment and...
Australia's oceans are undergoing rapid change and changes in fish distribution, abundance and phenology have been widely reported. A first step in ensuring that the fisheries of Australia adapt effectively to climate change is an understanding of the historical and projected changes in the species...
