Evaluation of harvesting strategies for Australian fisheries at different levels of risk from economic collapse

Management of a marine renewable resource involves selecting a trade-off between conflicting objectives related to conservation and utilization. This problem is complicated by uncertainty about the current status and productivity of the resource being managed, and hence about the implications of...

Tide and current analysis of the Gulf of Carpentaria and its relation to banana prawn larval dispersion

The prawn fishing industry in the Gulf of Carpentaria is worth $100 million/year and a large proportion of this is from catches of banana prawns. In one stage of their complex life history, banana prawn larvae are carried by ocean currents from their spawning grounds to the estuarine nursery...
