Seafood CRC: Introduction to the use of bioeconomics in fisheries management for key decision makers

The economic performance gap (lost profit) in Australian fisheries has been estimated at 36-46% or $350-450 million per annum. The future harvest theme attempts to recover this loss and assumes that half of this gap in economic performance (i.e. $200 million p.a.) occurs in CRC fisheries (i.e. is...

Testing abalone empirical harvest strategies, for setting TACs and associated LMLs, that include the use of novel spatially explicit performance measures

The successful management of abalone stocks is recognized as difficult. There used to be an array of valuable commercial abalone fisheries around the world but production in many of these rapidly declined in the late 1980s and a number have now collapsed (Shepherd and Baker 1998; Tarr, 2000; Hobday...
