Feasibility assessment of an adaptive management experiment in the SA lobster fishery

Project number: 1995-137
Project Status:
Completed
Budget expenditure: $0.00
Principal Investigator: Jim Prescott
Organisation: SARDI Food Safety and Innovation
Project start/end date: 27 Jun 1997 - 30 Jun 1997

FRDC

Objectives

1. Identify alternative hypotheses and develop several options whereby the lobster population could be manipulated by commercial fishing activity to achieve a desired experimental treatment and control eg high and low population densities
2. Conduct analyses to determine the experimental parameters eg length of experiment, spatial scale of experiment, experimental design (replicates etc). Determine local and zone scale social, operational and economic impacts.
3. Conduct a series of workshops where commercial and recreational sectors, managers and enforcement officers can have input
4. Develop a consensus view on one option for conducting the experiment. A research proposal based on this option would then be drafted, if consensus can be reached. The proposal would detail costs of research, management and enforcement.

Immuno-staining of a ciliate protozoan causing significant mortalilty of farmed tuna: the development of a rapid identification technique which will enable improved farm management practices to be implemented to minimise fish mortality

An immunofluorescent staining technique for the rapid detection of the ciliate protozoan Uronema sp. was developed during 1995 and 1996. The initial test was developed using seven cultures of Uronema sp. from various sources which were identified as Uronema nigricans by microscopical and...

Condition and its assessment in the southern rock lobster (Jasus edwardsii). Assessment of condition indices and moult staging techniques

In July 1993, a program was initiated by the South Australian Research and Development Institute (SARDI) and the South Australian Rock Lobster Research Association (SARLRA) to study the population dynamics of the Southern Rock Lobster. The study fitted with, and became part of, the tri-state...

Development of an integrated fisheries management model for King George whiting (Sillaginodes punctata) in South Australia

The King George Whiting Simulator (WhitSim) is a simulation version of the Whiting Estimator (WhitEst) encased inside a graphical user interface (GUI) that includes geographical information systems (GIS). WhitSim provides the ability to simulate various management strategies and parameter scenarios...

Stock Identification and discrimination of snapper (Pagrus auratus) in South Australian waters, using molecular genetic techniques

The snapper (Pagrus auratus) fishery in South Australia is currently managed as one stock, although recent changes to the regional management of the recreational fishery have been based in part on an assumption of a multi-stock population structure. Tagging and genetic studies in other States...
