Funded Activity Summary

Fishing for change: enhancing Australia’s seafood futures. Seafood production is an important part of Australia’s economy and future food security. In a dual relationship, fisheries are both vulnerable to and a cause of changes in the marine environment. This project will identify the maximum limits to Australian seafood production and will determine the impacts of future perturbations. To achieve this, the project will: combine existing rich historical data sources with state-of-the art ecosystem and fisheries models; analyse environmental impacts that will complement national fisheries stock assessments that are essential for future competitive exports; and determine our growing seafood imports and their role in Australia’s and the world’s food security.
