Description

The primary outcome of this project was to provide various stakeholders in the multifaceted barramundi fishery (including both the commercial/recreational wild fishery and aquaculture industry) with targeted scientific data and models assessing the vulnerability of this iconic species to future impacts of climate change. Access to this data will enable stakeholders to identify adaptation strategies and put in place informed planning processes ensuring the future viability of commercial and recreational activities dependent on the species., Made available via the Publications (Legal Deposit) Act 2004 (NT).,
