Determining biological characteristics of the champagne crab (Hypothalassia armata) for management purposes

During recent years, commercial trap fisheries have developed for the champagne and crystal crabs in deep waters off the lower west and south coasts of Western Australia. Thus, data on crucial aspects of the biology of these species were required to enable plans to be developed for conserving their...

Determination of the biological parameters required for managing the fisheries of four tuskfish species and western yellowfin bream

Data have been collected on the biology of western yellowfin bream and four tuskfish species that are of the type and quality required by managers for developing appropriate plans for conserving the stocks of these five commercial and recreational species. Emphasis was thus placed on determining (1)...

The influence of the Dawesville Channel on recruitment, distribution and emigration of crustaceans and fish in the Peel-Harvey estuary

The Peel-Harvey Estuary in south-western Australia covers an area of ca 136km2. The natural entrance channel at Mandurah is ca 5km long and opens into the north-western corner of the circular Peel Inlet, which occupies an area of ca 75km2. The south-western corner of the Peel Inlet in turn opens...

Estimation of natural and fishing mortality using length composition data

The objectives of this project were to develop length-based approaches for estimation of natural, fishing and total mortality, and to explore the application of these methods to the data from selected fisheries. The methods that were developed were essentially length-based versions of age-based...
