Trends in mean lengths and selectivities for Dissostichus eleginoides taken by longliners in Subarea 48.3
Abstract: At its last meeting, WG-FSA noted a declining trend in the mean lengths of toothfish ... of fish taken on individual longline sets from which length frequencies were sampled by observers and ... also that this trend was halted in 2000. A GLM analysis of these data shows that both area and depth ... are highly significant factors in explaining part of this variation over time, but not all of it ...

The Ross Sea cephalopod community: insights from stable isotope analysis
isotopic comparisons were made at the level of genus to accommodate the uncertainty in octopod ... identified as having relatively high importance in the food-web of the Ross Sea. However, information on the ... trophic ecology of the cephalopod assemblage of the Ross Sea region is poor. Stable isotope signatures of ... nitrogen (δ 15 N) and carbon (δ 13 C) were determined in muscle and beak tissue from a range of cephalopod ...
