Innovative Solutions For Aquaculture: planning and management - addressing seal interactions in the finfish aquaculture industry

The broad aims of this study were to provide information on the foraging zones of seals, and the location of breeding colonies and haulout locations in the Eyre Peninsula region of South Australia, to assist in the zoning, appropriate placement and management of future finfish aquaculture...

Refining a Nordmøre grid to minimise the incidental catch of cuttlefish and crabs in the Spencer Gulf Prawn Fishery

This report presents the findings of bycatch reduction device (BRD) trials undertaken for the Spencer Gulf Prawn Fishery (SGPF) in South Australia using a ‘Nordmøre-grid’—a type of BRD that mechanically separates organisms based on size and/or morphological differences....

Application of tracking technologies to understand space-time explicit patterns of movement, residency and habitat use of pelagic sharks in Spencer Gulf: resolving overlaps with key community activities and marine industries

The report focuses on the movement dynamics of two pelagic sharks, the White Shark (Carcharadon carcharias) and Bronze Whaler (Carcharinhus brachyurus), in South Australia. Specific aims were to: (1) determine if aquaculture activities correlated with patterns on fidelity and migration; and (2)...

ESD of fish farms: a pilot study to refine techniques for quantify the effect and processes associated with seafloor souring and recovery following sea cage rotation fallowing and harrowing

Project number: 1994-091
Project Status:
Completed
Budget expenditure: $62,229.71
Principal Investigator: Anthony Cheshire
Organisation: SARDI Food Safety and Innovation
Project start/end date: 17 Sep 1994 - 29 Nov 1996
Contact:
FRDC

Objectives

1. Quantify the variability in terms of community composition, abundance, metabolism and nutrient exchange, of the seafloor sediment beneath and adjacent sea cages on a number of spatial and temporal scales
2. Evaluate, on a pilot scale, whether harrowing, bacterial additives and surface sediment removal reduce the rate of seafloor scouring and therefore enhance the rate of recovery of seafloor sediments
3. Develop and refine cost effective techniques to quantify the rate of souring and recovery of seafloor sediments beneath and adjacent to sea cages
4. Develop a detailed R&D proposal for cost effectively evaluating the rate of souring and in particular, the recovery of the seafloor sediments associated with sea cages in aquaculture ventures thereby leading to improved management strategies and farm practices
