Tackling a critical industry bottleneck: developing methods to avoid, prevent and treat biofouling on mussel farms
Biofouling negatively affects shellfish production through several pathways, including: 1) reducing natural mussel spat settlement rates; 2) preying upon mussel spat and juveniles; 3) competing for food with mussels; and 4) smothering established mussels. These problems are well documented in the...

Links between seagrass habitats, piscivorous fishes and their fish prey
This project has increased our understanding of the importance of seagrass habitats to larger, commercially valuable, species of fish by combining experimental and correlative scientific principles. We found that many small fish use seagrass habitats for nutrition and to avoid predation by large...

Investigation of methods to age abalone
Management of the valuable Australian abalone fishery is difficult because catch/effort information for abalone does not provide warnings of declining stocks. In fact abalone fisheries in Alaska, California and Mexico have collapsed or declined dramatically, with little warning. Management must rely...

In situ time-stamping of abalone shells to determine how abalone stocks can be aged.
If abalone can be accurately aged, this would be a fundamental tool for more effective management of abalone fisheries. Several authors have proposed ageing abalone by grinding or cutting abalone shells, and counting the shell layers deposited beneath the spire. Other authors have cast...
