Journal ArticleDOI
Using otolith weight–age relationships to predict age-based metrics of coral reef fish populations at different spatial scales
TL;DR: Otolith weight–age relationships generally predicted modal age within ±1 year at all three spatial scales, and predictions were less accurate, however, for estimates of total mortality rate relative to those estimated from direct age estimates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mortality rate of a cohort of the coral trout, Plectropomus leopardus, in zones of the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park closed to fishing
TL;DR: Catch rates (fish person-1 hour-1) per age class per reef per year provide the first reliable estimates of the exponential rate of mortality of coral trout in zones of the GBR Marine Park closed to fishing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Temporal tracking of a strong cohort in the population of a coral reef fish, the coral trout, (Plectropomus leopardus) Serranidae: Epinephelinae, in the central Great Barrier Reef, Australia
TL;DR: Les resultats demontrent que de fortes fluctuations interannuelles du recrutement peuvent avoir un effet notable sur l'abondance locale des populations de merou etoiles bleues, and that les episodes of recrUTement importants peuven rester presents dans the structure d'âge des populations of cette espece.
Journal ArticleDOI
Age and growth of longtail tuna (Thunnus tonggol) in tropical and temperate waters of the central Indo-Pacific
TL;DR: The results suggest that longtail tuna grow more slowly and live longer than other tuna species of similar size, and caution needs to be exercised in managing the species until more reliable biological and catch data are collected to assess the status of the population.
Journal ArticleDOI
Validation of annual growth bands in the otolith of tropical parrotfishes (Scarus schlegeli Bleeker)
TL;DR: The otoliths of the scarid Scarus schlegeli (Bleeker) from the Lizard Island on the northern Great Barrier Reef showed a series of clear periodic bands and marginal increment analysis indicated that annual bands were formed around the austral summer.
