The direct estimation of age and growth of SBT

This project was developed in response to calls from the SBT Trilateral (now the CCSBT) Scientific Committee for the development and validation of techniques for the direct estimation of age and growth in the species. Since the early 1980’s, the stock assessment methods used by...

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...

Use of archival tags for studying the movement and swimming behaviour of school sharks

There has been serious concern over the status of the school shark fishery for many years, and it has been the subject of numerous stock assessments (Punt & Walker 1998). It is a well researched species: Olsen (1954) showed that school shark can make extensive migrations, and that females moved...

Putting potential environmental risk of Australia's trawl fisheries in landscape perspective: exposure of seabed assemblages to trawling, and inclusion in closures and reserves

This project implemented the first national spatial approach to quantifying the exposure of mapped seabed assemblages to the footprints of all demersal trawl fisheries that operate on the mainland continental shelf and slope of Australia, as well as their spatial protection in areas permanently...
