NCCP: Carp questionnaire survey and community mapping tool - empowering the community to be part of the national solution to Carp

One of the potential tools for controlling carp impacts is a biocontrol agent (ie, Cyprinid herpesvirus 3). If approved for use as a biocontrol for carp in Australia’s waterways, detailed information will be required to plan the release of the virus, and to mitigate any adverse impacts. More...

NCCP: Development of strategies to optimise release and clean up strategies underpinning possible use of herpesvirus 3 (CyHV-3) for carp biocontrol in Australia

This study was undertaken by Charles Sturt University. Although there is a considerable knowledge gap in understanding the social-economic and environmental impacts of a fish kill, it is essential to recognise the risks associated with these events – especially water quality. In order to...

Environmental determinants of recruitment success of King George whiting

Catches of King George whiting in Victorian bays and inlets vary greatly from year to year. This research was aimed at finding out how much of this variation was due to the environment, and whether we could use measures of environmental variables to predict catches in the future. King George whiting...
