Abalone translocation

This projects' data on abalone translocations is stored in two databases containing data collected for abalone aggregation and larval surveys in Tasmania. Genetic information has also been generated using microsatellites.

Purpose
This data has been collected to assess the efficacy of restocking depleted reefs by establishing spawning stocks of abalone through translocation to enhance the supply of abalone larvae to reefs.

Statement
The aggregation dataset contains data from abalone aggregation surveys taking place both before and after abalone were translocated to inshore reefs in NE Tasmania. The surveys are undertaken at three pairs of 60m by 30m sites, each pair of sites located on individual reefs. Approximately 2000 abalone were translocated to one of each pair of reefs, the remaining reefs left as control sites. Abalone were individually tagged at each site, and their length recorded. At each site, both prior to and post translocation, abalone size, the number of abalone in each patch and its position, and the surrounding habitat type were recorded. Abalone density was estimated by counting abalone along 10 randomly placed transects. The larval survey dataset contains data from surveys of abalone post-larvae density. Ten larval collectors were installed at the three treatment sites prior to translocation, and at the treatment and control sites after translocation. At approximately three monthly intervals, the number of abalone post-larvae on each collector was counted, and the condition (weed growth, other invertebrates and encrusting organisms) recorded.
