Measurement Of Fisheries Compliance Outcomes : A Preliminary National Study : Frdc Final Report, E Price, Roy Melville-Smith, D King, Timothy J. Green, W Dixon, S Lambert, T Spencer
Fisheries research reports
This report presents the results of a project undertaken by a group of Australia and United States based fishery compliance experts to assess and compare methods for measuring fisheries compliance outcomes that can be used to assess and compare the effectiveness of fishery enforcement and compliance assistance activities. This eight month project was requested in 2013 by Australia’s National Fisheries Compliance Committee (NFCC) as a way to provide fisheries compliance groups with improved methods for measuring and tracking the effectiveness of their activities and for justifying and managing their budgets.
Review Of Potential Fisheries And Marine Management Impacts On The South-Western Australian White Shark Population, S.M Taylor, J.M Braccini, R. Mcauley, W.J Fletcher
Review Of Potential Fisheries And Marine Management Impacts On The South-Western Australian White Shark Population, S.M Taylor, J.M Braccini, R. Mcauley, W.J Fletcher
Fisheries research reports
Following five fatal incidents involving white sharks (Carcharodon carcharias) off the lower west coast of Western Australia between September 2011 and July 2012, as well as other highly-publicised non-fatal encounters with this species, in 2012 the State Government funded several new initiatives to better understand white sharks in Western Australia and the likely effectiveness of any community safety interventions in Western Australian waters.
Status Of Inshore Demersal Scalefish Stocks On The South Coast Of Western Australia. Nrm Project 12034 Final Report, Jeffrey Norriss, E.A Fisher, Sybrand Alexander Hesp, Gary Jackson, P.G Coulson, T Leary, A.W Thompson
Status Of Inshore Demersal Scalefish Stocks On The South Coast Of Western Australia. Nrm Project 12034 Final Report, Jeffrey Norriss, E.A Fisher, Sybrand Alexander Hesp, Gary Jackson, P.G Coulson, T Leary, A.W Thompson
Fisheries research reports
Inshore demersal scalefish in waters of 20-250 m depth in the South Coast Bioregion (SCB) are an important resource targeted by commercial, recreational and charter fishing sectors.

Fisheries research reports
The prevalence of fishery certification schemes and associated ecolabels has grown over the last ten years with numerous ecolabels now in the marketplace e.g. Friends of the Sea, Naturland, SAI Global Trust (Parkes et al. 2010, Washington and Ababouch 2011, Ward and Phillips 2013). However, one of the most prominent and well regarded, particularly by eNGOs, is the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) (Gutiérrez et al. 2012, Ponte 2012, Bush et al. 2013, Ward and Phillips 2013) which accounts for greater than 10 % of annual global harvest of wild capture fisheries (MSC 2014b).

An Update Of The Department Of Fisheries, Western Australia, Invertebrate And Reef Health Research And Monitoring At Cocos (Keeling) Islands, S.N Evans, N Konzewitsch, Lynda Bellchambers Dr
Fisheries research reports
The Cocos (Keeling) Islands are an Australian External Territory located in the Indian Ocean (12° 12" S, 96° 54" E). The group is comprised of two separate coral atolls, consisting of 27 islands. The southern atoll consists of 26 islands, surrounding a shallow lagoon, two of which are inhabited with a total population of approximately 600 people. Since 2002, a Service Delivery Arrangement (SDA) has been in place between the Department of Fisheries, Western Australia (DoF) and the Commonwealth Government of Australia to manage the fish resources of the Cocos (Keeling) Islands (CKI).

Bioeconomic Evaluation Of Commercial-Scale Stock Enhancement In Abalone, Anthony M. Hart, Lachlan W.S. Strain
Bioeconomic Evaluation Of Commercial-Scale Stock Enhancement In Abalone, Anthony M. Hart, Lachlan W.S. Strain
Fisheries research reports
The evaluation of commercial-scale stock enhancement was undertaken to determine its viability in the Western Australian Greenlip Abalone fishery. The key outcome of the project is that commercial-scale abalone stock enhancement is environmentally and economically achievable. The bioeconomic analysis revealed significant economic potential of a stock enhancement program for Australian Haliotis laevigata fisheries.

Innovative Development Of The Octopus (Cf) Tetricus Fishery In Western Australia, Anthony M. Hart, Stephen C. Leporati, Ross Marriott, D. V. Murphy
Fisheries research reports
In 2010 the broad-scale introduction of a new gear type, the trigger trap, saw a 260% (33 t in 2009 to 119 t in 2010) increase in octopus landings in the Western Australian Developmental Octopus Fishery (DOF). Deployed in waters previously unfished by the DOF, initial catches demonstrated that trigger traps were more efficient and captured a different component of the population, compared to open-ended shelter pots traditionally used in the fishery. This shift caused a surge of interest in commercial octopus fishing.
