Summary

This study looks at the population dynamics and fishery biology of the southern rock lobster, Jasus edwasrdsii, in South Australian waters. The four distinct areas of investigation are biological research to describe key population parameters; development of a comprehensive database of biological and fisheries data; integration of biological and fisheries parameters and data in a computer simulation model of the lobster stock and fishery, and dissemination of the project results and assisting commercial fishers to use the simulation model and other information generated by the project.
