Stable isotope tracing of the contribution of seagrass production to subtropical fisheries species occurring outside seagrass areas

Results from this project affect the relative importance coastal managers will place on different estuarine habitats. Until now primary production from mangrove forests has been ranked highly for its presumed contribution to fisheries species occurring seaward of mangroves. This project...

The Detection of Ciguatera Toxins in NSW Spanish Mackerel

Ciguatera Poisoning (CP) is an illness through the consumption of fish containing naturally occurring toxins, and is considered a high risk for Australian seafood safety. Ciguatoxins (CTXs) are produced by benthic microalgae (Gambierdiscus spp). In Australia, CP cases are related to fish caught in...
