NCCP: Investigation of nutrient interception pathways to enable circumvention of cyanobacterial blooms following carp mortality events

This investigation was undertaken by the University of Adelaide and the University of Western Australia as a part of the research priorities for the National Carp Control Plan. While proposed biological control agents to reduce carp numbers may have positive impacts to aquatic ecosystems, it is...

Evaluation of a smart-phone application to collect recreational fishing catch estimates, including an assessment against an independent probability based survey, using South Australia as a case study

Information on recreational catch and effort is becoming increasingly important to inform fishery stock assessment and the sustainable management of fisheries resources. As smartphone applications ('apps') become more sophisticated and widely available, they are increasingly being used to record...

Aquafin CRC - SBT Aquaculture Subprogram: activity metabolism in live-held southern bluefin tuna (Thunnus maccoyii), Phase 2

Bluefin tuna have a variety of anatomical and physiological adaptations that enhance performance and make them distinctive among fish. This unique physiology means that many common aquacultural beliefs are not applicable to this fish. However, due to the logistical difficulties of...

The use of dietary intervention with Ulva to improve survival associated with the incidence of summer mortality on farmed Abalone

A research priority identified by the Australian Abalone Growers’ Association (AAGA) in 2019, prior to the commencement of the project, was to improve the survival of commercially cultured abalone during periods of high summer water temperatures (> 22°C). This research aimed to address...
