Determining appropriate sizes at harvest for species shared by the commercial trap and recreational fisheries in New South Wales

There is concern that many species harvested by the NSW demersal trap and offshore recreational fisheries are in decline and there exists very little biological information on which to assess their stock status or base management decisions. The NSW demersal trap fishery, worth around $4 million a...

Effects of trawling subprogram: An investigation of two methods to reduce the benthic impact of prawn trawling

The physical contact between trawl gear and the seabed is coming under closer scrutiny by various interest groups. Some groups raise concern that this contact is severely affecting biodiversity in marine environments that have high natural heritage value (WWF 2002). Substantial scientific research...

Understanding shelf-break habitat for sustainable management of fisheries with spatial overlap.

Habitat at the shelf break - a depth zone in ~180-400 m where the continental shelf drops away rapidly down the continental slope - is an area of high productivity off Southern Australia and is targeted by different fisheries using different gear types. For example, traps are used for ling and...
