<strong><em>A PDF of the full Case Study, including figures and tables (where provided) is downloadable in the "On-line Resources" section of this record as "CASE STUDY 2021 – Lessons for marine management derived from fisheries management practices"</em></strong>



DESCRIPTION OF FOCUS FOR THE CASE STUDY
This case study summarises key lessons from Australian fisheries management that are relevant to the management of natural marine, freshwater and terrestrial environments and resources more broadly and highlight opportunities for improved natural resource management. For example, Australian fisheries management has used innovative approaches to (i) reduce conflict in decision-making with defined targets and reference points (e.g. as part of harvest strategies), (ii) explore consequences of implementing different management decisions in fisheries systems (e.g. management strategy evaluation), (iii) apply the precautionary principle (e.g. ecological risk assessments), and (iv) consider a wider range and cumulative impacts, including climate change, on marine systems. The success of the arrangements is due to co-development with expertise-based consultative forums (e.g. Resource Advisory Groups, Management Advisory Committees) where the outputs and details of these approaches are considered, questioned and agreed in a transparent and collaborative manner.

DATA STREAM(S) USED IN CASE STUDY
Synthesis of literature published, and expert knowledge of the case study authors.

2021 State of the Environment Report Marine Chapter – Expert Assessment – State and Trend – Microbial communities and processes

The Marine chapter of the 2021 State of the Environment (SoE) report incorporates multiple expert templates developed from streams of marine data. This metadata record describes the Expert Assessment "State and Trend of microbial communities and processes". 
<strong><em>A PDF of the full Expert Assessment, including figures and tables (where provided) is downloadable in the "On-line Resources" section of this record as "EXPERT ASSESSMENT 2021 - microbial communities and processes"</em></strong>



DESCRIPTION OF SPECIES/HABITAT/COMMUNITY/PROCESS FOR EXPERT ASSESSMENT
Australian marine waters typically contain 10^5-10^7 microbial (bacteria, archaea and unicellular algae) cells/ml, belonging to tens of thousands of different species (Brown et al 2018). This highly diverse and abundant community sensitively and rapidly responds to changes in environmental conditions and is hence a valuable indicator of ecosystem status and health. Microbes also shape the marine environment by playing a central role in biogeochemical cycles, supporting phytoplankton primary productivity, contributing to the ocean carbon pump, and removing a wide range of chemical pollutants.

DATA STREAM(S) USED IN EXPERT ASSESSMENT
The assessment is based on &gt;5000 pelagic water samples, collected during marine voyages (sparsely covering most of Australia’s coastal waters) and at the 7 IMOS National Reference Stations (3 of which have been sampled since July 2012; the other 4 since July 2015).

WAMSI PhD Top-up - 3.9.6 - The role of microbial communities in reef building corals along the Ningaloo Reef, WA

As part of the WAMSI PhD Top-up scholarship - the role of microbial communities in reef building corals along the Ningaloo Reef, WA will be studied. Coral-associated microbial communities from three coral species (Pocillopora damicornis, Acropora tenuis and Favites abdita) were examined every 3 months (January, March, June, October) over a period of 1 year on Ningaloo Reef, Western Australia.

DOT Wave Buoy Deployments

DOT wave data is collected using Datawell wave rider buoys. Older wave data was collected using non-directional wave rider buoys. As technology advanced and directional measuring capabilities were developed in wave buoys, the DOT wave buoy network was gradually upgraded to directional wave rider buoys. Older datasets do not have directional information whereas newer datasets have directional information.Historic Tide and Wave data is held by DOT from Wyndham to Esperance. Tide; AWAC; Wave; Pressure and Current data currently available at the Department of Transport, Fremantle. This data can be ordered at the following link:http://www.transport.wa.gov.au/imarine/historical-tide-and-wave-data.asp

2021 State of the Environment Report Marine Chapter – Expert Assessment – State and Trend – Sea snakes

The Marine chapter of the 2021 State of the Environment (SoE) report incorporates multiple expert templates developed from streams of marine data. This metadata record describes the Expert Assessment "State and Trend of Sea Snakes". 
<strong><em>A PDF of the full Expert Assessment, including figures and tables (where provided) is downloadable in the "On-line Resources" section of this record as "EXPERT ASSESSMENT 2021 - State and Trend – Sea Snakes"</em></strong>



DESCRIPTION OF SPECIES/COMMUNITY FOR EXPERT ASSESSMENT
Sea snakes occur in a variety of shallow-water marine habitats in northern Australia, including estuaries, coral reefs, soft-sediment habitats, and seagrass meadows (Rasmussen et al. 2014). These species have a completely marine lifecycle and are highly susceptible to climate change, habitat degradation and bycatch within Australian coastal trawl fisheries. Australia has approximately ~32 sea snake species, including 13 endemic species. Two endemic species are listed as Critically Endangered under the EPBC Act and IUCN Red List, a further two endemics listed as Endangered and Near Threatened by IUCN have not been assessed under the EPBC Act (Elfes et al. 2013). A recent Red List re-assessment of Australian sea snake species (currently in review) has downgraded the two ‘Critically Endangered’ species to ‘Data Deficient’ based on expanded area of occupancy based on new sightings outside previously recognised ranges, and a lack of population trend information in the new locations.

DATA STREAM(S) USED IN EXPERT ASSESSMENT
Data primarily collected from past IUCN assessments, reports and publications by Reef Life Survey, Vinay Udyawer, Michael Guinea, and Kate Sanders.

Atlas of Australian Marine Fishing and Coastal Communities

The Atlas of Australian Marine Fishing and Coastal Communities is the first Australia-wide, comprehensive and authoritative mapping initiative presenting an overview of Australian fishing activities and coastal communities. The Atlas shows where fish are caught in Australia's oceans, the value of those catches, where different fishing gears are used and the species that are taken. It provides public information on spatial distribution of commercial fisheries catch. It also provides information on the socio-economic characteristics of coastal communities in eight Marine Regions around Australia. Data are available by species (or species combination), fishing method and year, complete for the period 2000 to 2002.

WAMSI Node 1.3 and 1.4 - Benthic habitat surveys of potential LNG hub locations in the Kimberley region

A number of sites in the Kimberley region were considered for their suitability as a location for a proposed common-user liquefied natural gas hub precinct. These included Gourdon Bay, Quondong - Coulomb Point, Perpendicular Head and Packer Island. The marine benthic communities at these prospective sites are largely undescribed. On behalf of the Northern Development Taskforce (NDT), the Western Australian Department of Environment and Conservation (DECWA) has approached CSIRO Marine and Atmospheric Research (CMAR) and the Australian Institute of Marine Science (AIMS) to undertake a joint benthic community survey of four locations in this region.

This survey data will compliment the limited existing data and will used by NDT to rank and select suitable sites to be included in a Strategic Environmental Assessment (SAE). This selection process will be used to identify a suitable hub site that will minimise the degree of habitat disturbance by avoiding areas of high biodiversity and significance for threatened species and high productivity and structural complexity that may contain complex marine habitats, endemic species and important wildlife.
