Ensuring monitoring and management of bycatch in Southern Rock Lobster fisheries is best practice

Bycatch is an important issue in fisheries worldwide, with the impacts of fishing activities on non-targeted species and the wider marine environment receiving increasing public attention. Issues such as the potential wastage of resources through discarding of unwanted catch, ecological impacts on...

Effects of seasonal and interannual variability of the ocean environment on recruitment to the fisheries of Western Australia

The relatively high catch of invertebrate species in Western Australia compared to finfish is in sharp contrast to other regions of the world where finfish production usually dominates. This low level of finfish production is primarily due to the Leeuwin Current which brings warm, low nutrient...

Estimating fishing mortality of major target species and species of conservation interest in the Queensland east coast shark fishery

Fishing mortality rates for the major targeted and byproduct species of sharks landed by the Queensland East Coast Inshore Fin Fish Fishery (ECIFFF) have been estimated. The effects of these fishing mortality rates on population persistence for these species have also been modelled with demographic...
