This report is the culmination of the Gippsland Marine Environmental Monitoring (GMEM) project. The GMEM was developed in response to stakeholder concerns from the fisheries industry about a Geoscience Australia seismic survey in the Gippsland Basin (GA352 in April 2015), in addition to a broader need to acquire baseline data to be used to quantify impacts of seismic operations on marine organisms. The GMEM involves six components: 1) Theoretical sound modelling, 2) Sound monitoring and field-based modelling, 3) Scallop assessment using an Automated Underwater Vehicle (AUV), 4) Scallop assessment using dredging 5) Fish avoidance behaviour using acoustic tagging and monitoring, and 6) Analysis of fisheries catch data. The results and interpretations of these components are detailed in this final report.
