WAMSI Node 4.4.2-1 - Stock structure of West Coast demersal indicator species - Drift current trajectories from GPS-tracked buoys

ARCHIVED

Updated 13/01/2025

The Western Australian Department of Fisheries has been monitoring the trajectories of a series of drifting buoy releases along the Western Australian continental shelf since 2008. The objective of the programme is to study the current system on the continental shelf in relation to the migration of fish and invertebrate larvae, particularly over the summer months when some key pelagic species are spawning and also when the early-stage larvae of the western rock lobster are being transported offshore. To date, most of the releases have been along the lower west coast.
