Incorporating the effects of marine spatial closures in risk assessments and fisheries stock assessments

Within the framework of the Commonwealth Harvest Strategy Policy, the Australian Fisheries Management Authority (AFMA) has adopted clear decision rules to set catch limits for commercially targeted species in Commonwealth fisheries. In several fisheries, AFMA has adopted a tiered harvest strategy...

Sentinel sensors: revolutionising our understanding and management of the estuarine environment

This study, undertaken by CSIRO Oceans and Atmosphere, examines the usefulness of mussels as sentinels for environmental change using a novel biosensor. This project measured the vital signs of heart rate and behaviour in sentinel animals, as they respond to multiple and interacting changes in the...

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...
