Application of satellite real-time sea surface temperature data to the tuna, salmon and pilchard fisheries
This is the final report for FIRTA project 1981-056. The principal objective has been to study the application of real-time satellite-derived sea surface temperature measurements in assisting particular fisheries located in southern waters of Australia. Initially proposed for a three year period...

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 areas.
The aim of this project was to define the currents that carry the larvae so that the life history can be more fully understood and various biological hypothesis concerning the banana prawn and in particular the behaviour of larvae can be fully tested. To achieve these goals a mixture of field work and theoretical modelling and cooperation between physical oceanographers and fisheries biologists was required.

Fisheries biology of deep-water crustacea and fin fish on the continental slope of Western Australia
This project sought to investigate the population biology of the commercially important species, primarily crustaceans and finfish, caught in the North West Slope Trawl Fishery (NWSTF) and Western Deep Water Trawl Fishery (WDWTF).
This work aimed to measure standing stocks, growth rates, natural...
