Development of software for use in multi-frequency acoustic biomass assessments and ecological studies

The development of the ECHO software has enabled the collection and analysis of large multifrequency acoustic data sets. The data can now be processed in a timely manner (via overlays) to quality assure and interpret underlying acoustic characteristics in the signals. From these analyses we can...

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...

Catch-at-age, age at first spawning, historical changes in growth, and natural mortality of SBT: an integrated study of key uncertainties in population biology and dynamics of SBT, based on direct estimates of age from otoliths

The CCSBT has recognized for a number of years that a better understanding of the population biology and demographics of southern bluefin tuna (SBT) is necessary for improved population modeling and stock assessments. In 1996, the CCSBT Scientific Committee identified three areas where our...

Demand Conditions and Dynamics in the Southern and Eastern Scalefish and Shark Fishery: Empirical Investigation

This final report, a collaboration between economists from CSIRO, CQU and ABARES, is the first detailed analysis of the interrelationship between fish prices on the Sydney and Melbourne fish markets. In addition, the study derived empirical estimates of the own and cross-price flexibilities for the...

Next-generation Close-kin Mark Recapture: using SNPs to identify half-sibling pairs in Southern Bluefin Tuna and estimate abundance, mortality and selectivity

This report presents the results of the first application of Close-Kin Mark-Recapture (CKMR) using both Parent-Offspring Pairs (POP) and Half-sibling Pairs (HSP). This application to Southern Bluefin Tuna (SBT) has been successful, providing a decadal time series of absolute abundance, total...

Resolution of taxonomic problems and preparation of a user-friendly identification guide to whole fish and fillets for South East Fishery "quota species"

An upgraded identification guide to fish and fillets of the South East Fishery (SEF) quota species groups has been compiled from new information. This reference, South East Fishery.Quota Species: an Identification Guide (Daley et al., 1997) and hereafter referred to as SEF Species Guide, was...

Spatial interactions among juvenile southern bluefin tuna at the global scale: a large scale archival tag experiment

Results have increased our confidence in the recruitment index based on the aerial survey in the Great Australian Bight (GAB) by confirming that the timing and duration are ideal, that the majority of juvenile SBT are likely to return to the GAB each summer, and that based on current evidence it is...
