Stock predictions and spatial population indicators for Australia's east coast saucer scallop fishery
There is a strong need to better understand the respective roles of fishing effort and environmental drivers on the saucer scallop’s population dynamics and abundance. This project will provide improved understanding of relative roles played by fishing pressure, environmental drivers and habitat perturbations on scallop abundance, catch rates and stock status. In addition, provide industry with a more reliable and robust scallop fishery stock assessment model to estimate the current populations size of saucer scallops.
