Assessment of the Victorian rock lobster fishery
The southern rock lobster (Jasus edwardsit) is fished commercially in south-eastern Australia and New Zealand. The Victorian annual catch is currently 458 tonnes with a landed value of $14.5 million representing 10.6% of total rock lobster landings in south east Australia (ABARE 1997). Over eighty...

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...

Developing tagging models and validating assumptions for estimating key fishery assessment parameters in rock lobster fisheries
Tagging is an important tool for estimating key fisheries parameters such as fishing mortality, natural mortality and growth. This project identified the need for future tagging projects to undertake preliminary studies to determine the impact of tagging on both growth and survival, and we developed...

Enhancement of populations of abalone in NSW using hatchery-produced seed
Several critically important steps to achieving the central long-term aim of this project namely, cost-effective enhancement of abalone fisheries using hatchery produced seed stock, were achieved. The first was year-round controlled temperature conditioning and spawning of captive broodstock. This...

Seamount fauna off southern Tasmania: impacts of trawling; conservation and role within the fishery ecosystem
In September 1995, the deepwater trawl fishing industry agreed not to trawl in an area of 370 km2 on the continental slope south of Tasmania for three years, as stated in a Memorandum of Understanding between the former Australian Nature Conservation Agency (now Environment Australia) (EA) and the...

Interactions between the abalone fishery and sea urchins in NSW
A sampling method was developed to quantify changes in the abundance of abalone on reefs in NSW from Port Stephens to the Victorian border. The method is based on the repeated sampling of the same, fixed areas and has been used each year since 1994 to provide indices of the relative abundance of...

Growth of pearl oysters in the southern and northern areas of the pearl oyster fishery and examination of environmental influences on recruitment to the pearl oyster stock
The pearling industry is Australia’s most valuable aquaculture industry, generating approximately $187 million in 1997 (source: ABARE 1997). The oysters used to culture pearls are derived almost entirely from wild stock shell, rather than hatchery produced stock as occurs in other major...
