Effects of Trawling Subprogram: the interaction between fish trawling and other commercial and recreational fisheries

There is worldwide concern over the potential effects of by-catch and discarding of fish in commercial fisheries, particularly trawling. Although mortalities of discards are highly variable, it is likely that a large proportion of fish discarded at sea by trawlers do not survive. Consequently,...

Management of ‘tough fish syndrome’ in tropical Saddletail Snapper to re-instill market confidence

A major achievement of this research is the confirmation of fish age being the primary driver of toughness in cooked Saddletail snapper flesh. Knowing the cause provides confidence to develop solutions and make business decisions for the reef fish fisheries. The influence of other fish physiological...

Development of an ecosystem approach to the monitoring and management of Western Australian fisheries

Diversity and ecosystem-based indicators were calculated for commercial finfish fisheries from 1976 to 2005 for the West Coast, South Coast, Gascoyne, Pilbara and Kimberley bioregions. The ecosystem-based indices, which detect changes in the species composition of the food web within the ecosystem,...

Spatial interactions among juvenile southern bluefin tuna at the global scale: a large scale archival tag experiment

Results have increased our confidence in the recruitment index based on the aerial survey in the Great Australian Bight (GAB) by confirming that the timing and duration are ideal, that the majority of juvenile SBT are likely to return to the GAB each summer, and that based on current evidence it is...

Establishing the viability of a longline southern bluefin tuna operation based in Tasmania and establishing a quality control mechanism for the Australian longline industry

This report was trying to establish, with one of the Japanese Companies who are longline fishing south of Tasmania, a contact so that in the future we can establish a radio contact and exchange fishing information so we can fish the same areas. Since the beginning of the FIRTA GRANT we have...

Summary

The objective of this research travel grant was to develop Australian Seafood CRC PhD student Shan He's professional knowledge of transferring laboratory-scale results to a pre-commercial food model for industry benefit, and also build his professional skills and industry experience.

After one and half year's research, Shan He has achieved outstanding scientific outcomes. However, these results have not been applied to an industrial application because of the limitations of the biotechnology laboratory at Flinders University in formulating food products, and in the knowledge of the industry partner's food process and formulas. This research travel grant supported Shan to apply these results to commercial food formulations in a one month industry visit to Simplot Australia, the project's industry partner. The trial activity and industry interaction will train Shan He to be an industry-ready PhD graduate in the near future, so as to be able to better serve the Australia seafood industry.

Shan He was able to conduct experiments talk to managers of different divisions in Simplot Australia related to science, such as the New Products Process & Portfolio Manager, Science & Technology Manager, Group R&D Manager etc. Through these talks Shan He was familiarised with a key decision making system of Simplot Australia called the Stage Gate System. The information that Shan He gained from the communications developed his understanding of the role of science and technology in industry. The outcomes of this project assisted in developing Shan He's professional knowledge of transferring laboratory-scale results to industry products, built his professional skills and industry experience, and thus successfully prepared him to be an industry-ready PhD graduate in the near future.

Development of the aquaculture capability of the brown tiger prawn (Penaeus esculentus)

In order to provide for future growth of the Australian prawn aquaculture industry, there is a need to take a longer-term strategic view and develop production technology for alternative species that can support an export market but do not have the intense overseas competition of the current major...
