Tasmanian and Commonwealth scallop fisheries research (including bycatch): 2000-2005

Utilising both fishery independent and industry dependent surveys, spatial and temporal data was collected on scallop, and other bethnic community, abundance. The dataset also includes dredge video surveys and, in some instances, bycatch abundance.

Purpose
This project aimed to explore alternative spatial management strategies for the fishery. Also studied was the extent of extensive dredging activities along the coast, and what other benthic organisms (bycatch) are impacted when dredging of a scallop bed occurs.
