NCCP: Expanded modelling to determine anoxia risk in main river channel and shallow wetlands

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...

NCCP: Development of hydrological, ecological and epidemiological modelling to inform a CyHV3 release strategy for the biocontrol of carp in the Murray Darling Basin

This report details work undertaken by CSIRO and RMIT University for the National Carp Control Plan (NCCP). The present study develops a series of interrelated hydrological, ecological, and epidemiological models that enable the development of a strategy to inform feasibility assessment and...

NCCP: Population dynamics and Carp biomass estimates

This study was undertaken by the Arthur Rylah Institute for the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning. Carp (Cyprinus carpio) is Australia’s most invasive pest fish. To facilitate more effective management, the Australian Government is considering release of a Carp herpesvirus...

NCCP: essential studies on cyprinid herpesvirus 3 (CyHV-3) prior to release of the virus in Australian waters

This project, undertaken by CSIRO, aimed to determine the most important form of transmission of CyHV-3 to Cyprinus carpio (common carp). This was addressed through experiments to determine: (1) The relative amounts of virus in the skin and mucus of infected fish vs shed...

NCCP: Review of Carp control via commercial exploitation

The present study, undertaken by Charles Sturt University, was developed to investigate the potential for commercial, or subsidised, fishery exploitation to effectively control carp populations in Australia. Using published literature examples of fish (and other) vertebrate pest-removal...

NCCP: Understanding the genetics and genomics of carp strains and susceptibility to CyHV-3

To assess the risk that rapid resistance to CyHV-3 might develop, we undertook an extension to the integrated modelling with the objectives of defining what exactly is “resistance” in the context of viral biocontrol, and to elucidate the mechanisms (pathways) by which it might develop....

Developing and road testing a novel and robust method for trading off ecological interventions for the recovery of native fish communities

The Murray-Darling Basin Plan water recovery objectives through the Sustainable Diversion Limit (SDL) show outstanding potential to be accelerated through complementary measures. A complementary measures program encompasses a range of non-flow related investments to achieve ecological...

Evaluating of the role of direct fish-to-fish contact on horizontal transmission of Koi herpesvirus

Epidemiological modelling has been undertaken to evaluate the impact of CyHV-3 as part of an assessment of the feasibility of this virus as a potential biocontrol for carp in Australia. The present project provides information to support key components of the mechanisms of virus transmission which...

NCCP: Risks, costs, and water industry response

There are numerous risks to water utilities that may arise in the even of mass fish mortalities, and an essential need to understand the potential impacts of mass carp mortalities on water treatment facilities with different treatment methods and capacities around Australia. Different biomass...
