Cone Bay Infauna Sampling

When Marine Produce Australia (MPA)¡ªoperator of the continent¡¯s largest ocean-based barramundi farm in Western Australia¡¯s Cone Bay¡ªneeded to understand the impact of their operations on sea-floor sediments, they called on our team¡¯s Â鶹´«Ã½ in benthic surveys.

After analysing and characterising the field data against advanced multivariate statistics, we were able to confirm that the farm meets the Environment Protect Authority¡¯s sediment quality standards. Having this baseline data not only informs MPA¡¯s future planning, but it also helps the company maintain sustainability in their barramundi farm operations.

Our findings are now helping to support environmental monitoring and management plan changes in Cone Bay¡ªhelping to protect and care for our natural resources while supporting economic opportunity.
