Funded Activity Summary

Objectives:
1. To determine information needs for developing a predictive model based on environmental and fisheries variables
2. To collate all the existing and relevant local data on scallop recruitment and abundance, associated environmental factors and fishing effort
3. Combine these data into a model describing relationships between environment, fishing effort, recruitment and abundance
4. Build a model of the fishery using the Port Phillip Bay data (which is the most comprehensive data set). Include sensitivity analysis. Identify any additional data needs
5. Determine suitabilityof the Port Phillip Bay model for modelling the scallop fishery in south-eastern Australia
6. Recommend further course of action for data collection and fisheries management in order to refine the model
