Development of biological tagging techniques for penaeid prawns

The objective of this project was to develop novel biological tags for penaeid prawns. The impetus for this research was the growing interest in Australia in the potential for stock-enhancement of penaeid fisheries with hatchery reared juveniles. In any stock- enhancement program some...

Quantitative interpretation of fine-scale SBT catch per unit effort for south east Australia

An analysis of spatial and temporal variations in catch rates of Southern Bluefin Tuna (SBT) in relation to environmental factors was conducted for the region south of Tasmania up to 1he southern half of New South Wales. Substantial temporal and spatial variations were evident in...

The direct estimation of age and growth of SBT

This project was developed in response to calls from the SBT Trilateral (now the CCSBT) Scientific Committee for the development and validation of techniques for the direct estimation of age and growth in the species. Since the early 1980’s, the stock assessment methods used by...
