| dc.description.abstract | A recent study by Dubula et al. (2005) on the effect of tagging on the subsequent growth rate of rock lobsters has shown that there may be an appreciable reduction in the growth rate of male rock lobsters as a result of tagging. The amount of somatic growth reduction that might be occurring is of the order 2-3 mm per annum. A key question then to consider is what implications this might have for the sustainable productivity from the resource. | en_ZA |
