Estimating historical commercial rock lobster (Jasus edwardsii) catch inside Australian State territorial waters for marine protected area assessment: the binomial likelihood method
Abstract:The rock lobster (Jasus edwardsii) fishery of South Australia is the State's most valuable fisheries resource with an export value exceeding *AU$100 million. The fishery operates primarily inshore (\60 m), and overlaps with a series of marine protected areas (MPAs) currently proposed for State territorial waters. As a result, the need to quantify the impact of proposed MPAs on commercial landings of rock lobster within territorial waters is an integral part of the MPA assessment process. Removing fishing effor… Show more
