The successful management of the fishery for galjoen Dichistius capensis depends on an understanding of its spatial and temporal dynamics. This thesis investigates the movement of galjoen and its fishery parameters, and evaluates the role of marine protected areas (MPAs) and alternative assessment strategies. A review of the literature shows that there are examples of resident behaviour, territoriality, nomadism and migration among fish. Combinations of the above may exist within a stock. Fish movement behaviour may be plastic, but never random. Planktonic stages are capable of influencing their destination and settlement. 2014-08-13T14:14:09Z 2014-08-13T14:14:09Z 2002 Doctoral Thesis Doctoral PhD http://hdl.handle.net/11427/6226 eng application/pdf Department of Biological Sciences Faculty of Science University of Cape Town |
