Estimating the abundance of School Shark in Australia using close kin genetic methods

Close kin mark recapture (CKMR) provides an estimate of absolute abundance that is independent of fishing behaviour. We present a first CKMR estimate of abundance for School Shark and discuss the management implications of our findings. We found 65 half sibling pairs (HSPs), 3...

Definition of effective spawning stocks of commercial tiger prawns in the NPF and king prawns in the eastern king prawn fishery: behaviour of post-larval prawns

To effectively manage most fisheries, including penaeid prawn fisheries in northern and eastern Australia, it is important to know the relationship between the size of the spawning population and the number of young adults that recruit to a fishery in the next generation. In the tiger prawn fishery...

Indices of recruitment and effective spawning for tiger prawns stocks in the Northern Prawn Fishery

In the mid to late 1980s NORMAC began to suspect that tiger prawn spawning stocks in the NPF may have been reduced by fishing to levels that reduced recruitment to the fishery. A vessel buy-back scheme and other effort reductions were introduced to reverse this trend but, by the mid-1990s, the...
