  • Jeremy Lyle Curriculum Vitae
    JEREMY LYLE Biography Dr Jeremy Lyle is a Senior Research Fellow at the Institute for Marine and Antarctic Studies. He is interested in the field of fisheries ecology and biology with a particular focus on understanding fish population dynamics, the impacts of fishing on fish stocks and the characteristics of the recreational as well as commercial fishing sectors. After completing his PhD at the University of Liverpool (UK), Jeremy was employed as a fisheries scientist in the Northern Territory where he led a major initiative to develop a shark fishery off northern Australia. From there he joined the then Tasmanian Sea Fisheries Department and later the University of Tasmania. He has worked on a wide variety of commercial fisheries, including offshore trawl, small pelagics and coastal fisheries, as well as conducting recreational fishing surveys over many years. The primary focus of his research has been to understand the impacts of fishing on target and non-target species and provide the science required to support the sustainable management of the fish stocks. Jeremy's research interests include understanding the impacts of fishing activities on marine resources and how these can be developed and managed sustainably. In relation to recreational fisheries, he has a strong interest in the development of cost-effective survey methods as well as understanding the dynamics and drivers of fishing participation and their implications for resource sharing and management.

  • Stylet Elemental Signatures Indicate Population Structure in a Holobenthic Octopus Species, Octopus Pallidus
    Vol. 371: 1–10, 2008 MARINE ECOLOGY PROGRESS SERIES Published November 19 doi: 10.3354/meps07722 Mar Ecol Prog Ser OPENPEN ACCESSCCESS FEATURE ARTICLE Stylet elemental signatures indicate population structure in a holobenthic octopus species, Octopus pallidus Zoë A. Doubleday1,*, Gretta T. Pecl1, Jayson M. Semmens1, Leonid Danyushevsky2 1Marine Research Laboratories, Tasmanian Aquaculture & Fisheries Institute, University of Tasmania, Private Bag 49, Hobart, Tasmania 7001, Australia 2Centre for Ore Deposit Research, University of Tasmania, Private Bag 79, Hobart, Tasmania 7001, Australia ABSTRACT: Targeted trace elemental analysis was used to investigate the population structure and disper- sal patterns of the holobenthic octopus species Octopus pallidus (Hoyle, 1885). Multi-elemental signatures within the pre-hatch region of the stylet (an internal ‘shell’) were used to determine the common origins and levels of connectivity of individuals collected from 5 locations in Tasmania. To determine whether hatchling elemental signatures could be used as tags for natal ori- gin, hatchling stylets from 3 of the 5 locations were also analysed. We analyzed 12 elements using laser ablation inductively-coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (LA- ICPMS). Of the 12 elements, 7 were excellent spatial discriminators. There was evidence of high-level struc- turing with distinct groupings between all sites (the 2 closest being 85 km apart) within the adult O. pallidus Octopus pallidus, a holobenthic species found in south-east population, suggesting that all adults had hatched in or Australia near their respective collection sites. The hatchling sig- Photo: Stephen Leporati natures showed significant spatial variation, and a high percentage of individuals could successfully be traced back to their collection locations.

  • Catch and Effort Data
    Chapter 11: The Inland Waters River Fishery Information System CHAPTER 11: INLAND WATERS RIVER FISHERY INFORMATION SYSTEM 11.1 Background The Inland Waters River fishery is a multi-species, multi-gear fishery encompassing the South Australian sector of the River Murray and its backwaters (Map 11.1). Historically, the fishery was based on harvesting Murray cod (Maccullochella peelii peelii), golden perch (Macquaria ambigua), and bony bream (Nematalosa erebi). The fishery was restructured in July 2003 to a non-native dominate fishery and the commercial fishing for significant native species is now prohibited. The fishery is now based predominantly on the taking European carp (Cyprinus carpio) and redfin perch (Perca fluviatilis). There are a total of 6 licence holders who operate within the fishery. Prior to the restructure 30 license holders fished the river, each with a designated reach. Up to December 2007 SARDI production tables hold in excess of 270,000 daily records. Data is held from 1984/85 to current and is continually being updated. Refer to Figure 11.3 for an entity relationship diagram of the inland waters system that encompasses the River Fishery.

  • Octopus Consciousness: the Role of Perceptual Richness
    Review Octopus Consciousness: The Role of Perceptual Richness Jennifer Mather Department of Psychology, University of Lethbridge, Lethbridge, AB T1K 3M4, Canada; [email protected] Abstract: It is always difficult to even advance possible dimensions of consciousness, but Birch et al., 2020 have suggested four possible dimensions and this review discusses the first, perceptual richness, with relation to octopuses. They advance acuity, bandwidth, and categorization power as possible components. It is first necessary to realize that sensory richness does not automatically lead to perceptual richness and this capacity may not be accessed by consciousness. Octopuses do not discriminate light wavelength frequency (color) but rather its plane of polarization, a dimension that we do not understand. Their eyes are laterally placed on the head, leading to monocular vision and head movements that give a sequential rather than simultaneous view of items, possibly consciously planned. Details of control of the rich sensorimotor system of the arms, with 3/5 of the neurons of the nervous system, may normally not be accessed to the brain and thus to consciousness. The chromatophore-based skin appearance system is likely open loop, and not available to the octopus’ vision. Conversely, in a laboratory situation that is not ecologically valid for the octopus, learning about shapes and extents of visual figures was extensive and flexible, likely consciously planned. Similarly, octopuses’ local place in and navigation around space can be guided by light polarization plane and visual landmark location and is learned and monitored. The complex array of chemical cues delivered by water and on surfaces does not fit neatly into the components above and has barely been tested but might easily be described as perceptually rich.
