Intensive cultivation of a calanoid copepod for live food in fish culture
The aim of this study was to develop a system for the cultivation of a calanoid copepod which occurs in estuaries in the southwest of Western Australia. This copepod, Gladioferens imparipes, seemed suitable for use in marine fish aquaculture; it can tolerate a wide salinity range, including sea...

This report deals with the operation of the twin sounder installation, referred to in earlier project reports, during 1979. For the period 1978/79 a grant of $2,750 was recommended for building and testing the prototype device. In order to meet construction deadlines on the vessel "Territory Chief" it was necessary to build and install the sounder system by late 1977, as outlined in the last report to the Fishing Industry Research Committee.
That report also dealt with the system performance during the 1978 banana prawn season. The present report covers work done during the 1979 season in the Gulf of Carpentaria.
