Key research
-
William White and Steve Blaber (CSIRO)
- Compositions of the previously unknown elasmobranch catches that are taken
to fish markets in Indonesia and determining of the values for some of the
basic biological parameters for the main species at those markets.
-
Malcolm Tull - Determining socioeconomic aspects
of the artisanal component of the elasmobranch fisheries in Indonesia to
elucidate the extent to which local communities depend on the fishery for
sharks and rays, which yields not only flesh for human consumption but also
material for a variety of other purposes.
-
Ashlee Jones and Lindsay Marshall - Biology
of selected shark and ray species on the lower west coast of Australia,
and in particular of the Port Jackson shark Heterodontus portusjacksoni
and of the elasmobranch community as a whole, in order to extend our earlier
studies of resource partitioning amongst elasmobranchs on this coast.
