The development of an index for the prediction of catches of blacklip and greenlip abalone, and a technique for ageing these species
The scientific literature has generally accepted that abalone populations are characterised by low levels of settlement and recruitment (Tegner in press), that mortality is relatively low (Doi et al. 1977; Beinssen and Powell 1979; Sainsbury 1982; Shepherd et al. 1982; Fournier and Breen 1983) and...

Feasibility assessment of commercial production of two important shellfish (abalone and scallops)
This report concludes investigations into the economic and biological viability of scallop culture in Tasmania. Research into spat settlement and ongrowing methods has continued from the 1970's and the current TFDA and FIRTA funded programmes (1980-84) have successfully cultured scallops to legal,...

Using scat DNA to inform sustainable fisheries management and Ecological Risk Assessments: a Shy Albatross case study
Seabirds are attracted to fishing vessels through the availability of fishery discards, increasing the risk of injury or mortality from interactions with fishing gear. However, it is difficult to estimate what proportion of the population may be at risk. We use DNA metabarcoding of scats to...

Assessment of optimal trapping techniques to control densities of northern Pacific seastars on marine farm leases
The principal aims of this study were to evaluate whether the locally produced Whayman-Holdsworth trap provides an effective method for minimising Asterias amurensis infestations on shellfish farms, and to objectively assess the value of seastar traps when used in commercial applications.
In an...
