Testing abalone empirical harvest strategies, for setting TACs and associated LMLs, that include the use of novel spatially explicit performance measures

The management of abalone stocks is difficult for many reasons including their high value and the exceptional levels of spatial structuring found in their stocks. In Tasmania, for example, suggestions to change such things as a legal minimum length or introduce a formal harvest strategy to replace...

Long-term recovery of trawled marine communities 25 years after the world’s largest adaptive management experiment

This project investigated the extent to which trawled communities of Australia’s North-West Shelf have recovered from high levels of trawling before the exclusion of foreign fleets in 1990 and after the imposition of tight controls on trawl and trap fishing in the early 1990s. The results...

Need

There would be many advantages in having the fishing industry collect some of the basic data needed for stock assessment and environmental monitoring. The need is to develop a program for this to occur in an efficient, effective and accountable manner. The first need is to bring together key stakeholders who would need to be involved if such a program were to be developed. The stakeholders would include fishing industry associations, fisheries scientists (government and non-government), fisheries training agencies, resource and environmental management agencies and groups like Ocean Watch.

Objectives

1. To discuss and scope ideas for developing industry capability for scientific data collection
2. To develop a full proposal for submission to FRDC in December 1999.
