Golden fish: evaluating and optimising the biological, social and economic returns of small-scale fisheries
This project investigates recreational and commercial fisher motivations for using a fishery and the beliefs, attitudes and perceived benefits of aquaculture-based enhancement programs and other management options. It also determines the total economic value for recreational fishing for Blue Swimmer...

Predicting the impacts of shifting recreational fishing effort towards inshore species
The project outputs have led to the following outcomes:
1. A model has been developed enabling reliable estimation of mortality of fish species that undertake size-related, unidirectional, offshore movements from age and length data. This new modelling approach is likely to be applicable to stocks...

Determination of the biological parameters required for managing the fisheries of four tuskfish species and western yellowfin bream
Data have been collected on the biology of western yellowfin bream and four tuskfish species that are of the type and quality required by managers for developing appropriate plans for conserving the stocks of these five commercial and recreational species. Emphasis was thus placed on determining (1)...

Development of an ecosystem approach to the monitoring and management of Western Australian fisheries
Diversity and ecosystem-based indicators were calculated for commercial finfish fisheries from 1976 to 2005 for the West Coast, South Coast, Gascoyne, Pilbara and Kimberley bioregions. The ecosystem-based indices, which detect changes in the species composition of the food web within the ecosystem,...
