Sentinel sensors: revolutionising our understanding and management of the estuarine environment

This study, undertaken by CSIRO Oceans and Atmosphere, examines the usefulness of mussels as sentinels for environmental change using a novel biosensor. This project measured the vital signs of heart rate and behaviour in sentinel animals, as they respond to multiple and interacting changes in the...

An ecological approach to re-establishing Australian freshwater cod populations: an application to trout cod in the Murrumbidgee catchment

This project consisted of two field experiments primarily designed to determine if dispersal of post-juvenile trout cod, Maccullochella macquariensis, is responsible for the apparent lack of success following stocking of this species into numerous riverine sites. The study also served to trial the...

Development of acoustic methods to survey orange roughy in the eastern and southern zones

Three acoustic surveys were carried out between 17 and 20 July 1996 on the orange roughy spawning ground off St. Helens, Tasmania. A combination of 22 demersal trawls and ensonification with three frequencies (12, 38 and 120 kHz) was used to assess the species composition around the spawning hill....

Vulnerability of the endangered Maugean Skate population to degraded environmental conditions in Macquarie Harbour

Maugean Skate (Zearaja maugeana) are only known from two isolated estuarine systems located on the west coast of Tasmania, representing one of most restricted distributions of any elasmobranch. There is, however, uncertainty about the continued persistence of the species in one of these estuaries...

SCRC: RTG: Visit to Dr Maria DeRosa, Carlton University, Canada laboratory

A major focus of Seafood CRC funded project (2011/726: Wanted Dead or Alive - Novel Technologies for Measuring Infectious Norovirus Particles) is the development of sensitive biosensors for the detection and discrimination of infective human norovirus (NoV). A critical step in achieving this is the...
