A short note on the available information about demersal fish on the shallow part of Sofala Bank [PDF]

open access: yes, 1985
The present information on the biomass and catch of demersal species which constitute a large part of the by-catch of the shrimp trawlers on the Sofala Bank (Mozambique), and thus seem to be more vulnerable than the pelagic stocks to an increase in effort is described.

Reproduction, age and growth of the Russell's scad, Decapterus russellii (Rüppel, 1828)(Carangidae) from Sofala Bank, Mozambique [PDF]

open access: yes, 1983
Age, growth and reproduction of D. russellii were studied. Most of the material used was caught by the commercial fishing fleet, operating in the Sofala Bank (Mozambique) area. A total of 68,000 fish were examined during the period 1979-1981. There were 2 main spawning periods each year, one in February-March and another in August-September.

Biology, fisheries and distribution ofThryssa vitrirostris(Gilchrist & Thompson 1908) and other Engraulidae along the coast of the Sofala Bank, western Indian Ocean

African Journal of Marine Science, 2011
The Sofala Bank (16°–21° S) forms a major discontinuity in the gradients of engraulid distribution along the south-eastern African coast. Although the number of species declines southwards, the density and the catches of species associated with higher turbidity increases within the bank, particularly for Thryssa vitrirostris and a few other Thryssa and

River Runoff and Shrimp Abundance in a Tropical Coastal Ecosystem — the Example of the Sofala Bank (Central Mozambique)

1986
Abundance indices of the shallow-water shrimp Penaeus indicus in Central Mozambique were analyzed by length groups, and related to Zambezi runoff on a year-to-year basis for the period 1974–1983. The Zambezi outflow seems to influence the recruitment strength P.indicus either by directly affecting the number of recruits or by inducing changes in the ...
