    Abstract

    Krill swarms were recorded acoustically along a 2340 Nm of the ice edge between Elephant Island and South Orkney Islands. Depth distributions and migration pattern were different for the three distinguished regions. It has been sugested that physical factors are the most important in both :horizontal and vertical krill distributions.
