Examining Fisheries Catches and Catch Rates for Potential Effects of Bass Strait Seismic Surveys
註釋"Marine seismic surveys are used to identify geological structures of the seafloor that may be indicative of oil and gas deposits, and they represent a major source of anthropogenic underwater noise. This desktop study was initiated in response to concerns raised by the fishing industry during stakeholder consultation prior to a proposed seismic survey in the Gippsland Basin, Australia. This study therefore aims to investigate whether a statistical relationship exists between marine seismic operations and reduced fish catch rates in the Bass Strait and Gippsland Basin, with possible causative relationships identified by declines in catch-per-unit of effort (CPUE) that consistently occur in association with seismic operations ..."--Online abstract.
