Has Notothenia rossii around Elephant Island and the lower South Shetland Islands (Subarea 48.1) recovered from exploitation some 30 years ago?
Abstract: The marbled notothenia (Notothenia rossii) was the first species targeted by commercial fishing in the Southern Ocean. The species has been heavily fished around South Georgia and Iles Kerguelen in the first half of the 1970’s and at Elephant Island in 1979/80. The closure of the fishery

The recent decline in recruitment of Gobionotothen gibberifrons in the South Shetland Islands (CCAMLR Subarea 48.1)
Abstract: Commercial exploitation of fish stocks around Elephant Island and the lower South Shetland Islands ceased after the 1989/90 season. One of the larger and most abundant species in the area, Gobionotothen gibberifons, was only lightly exploited compared to more northerly fishing grounds

Characteristics of population-genetic structure of Antarctic toothfish (Dissostichus mawsoni) from near-continental seas of Pacific, Indian and Atlantic sectors of the Antarctica
Abstract: Population-genetic structure of Antarctic toothfish (Dissostichus mawsoni) was investigated not once during the last decade and before, but in this work we present our data on DNA-analysis of recent samplings of toothfish from CCAMLR Subareas – 88.1, 58.4.1, 58.4.2 and 48.6. Our findings

Population structure and connectivity of an important pelagic forage fish in the antarctic ecosystem, Pleuragramma antarcticum, in relation to large scale circulation
Abstract: Ocean circulation has been identified as a major process controlling the distribution of biological material in marine systems. Large-scale transport by the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC), the Ross and Weddell Gyres, and the Antarctic Coastal Current can promote spatially complex

Analysis of the by-catch of Channichthys rhinoceratus and Lepidonotothen squamifrons from the fisheries at Heard Island and the McDonald Islands (Division 58.5.2)
Abstract: The unicorn icefish, Channichthys rhinoceratus and the grey rock cod, Lepidonotothen squamifrons are among the most common species bycaught in the toothfish and mackerel icefish trawl fisheries at Heard Island and McDonald Islands (HIMI) (Division 58.5.2). These species are rarely taken

The annual random stratified trawl survey to estimate the abundance of Dissostichus eleginoides and Champsocephalus gunnari in the Heard Island region (Division 58.5.2) for 2012
Abstract: The annual random stratified trawl survey at HIMI was completed in March to May of 2012. A codend liner, usually in place for the entire survey, was used only in the icefish strata, Gunnari Ridge, Plateau Southeast and Plateau West, and in a repeat of the hauls in Ground B. Catches in

A preliminary assessment of mackerel icefish (Champsocephalus gunnari) in Division 58.5.2, based on recent survey results
Abstract: The annual Random Stratified Trawl Survey was undertaken in Division 58.5.2 in the vicinity of Heard Island during April-May 2011. This paper provides a preliminary assessment of mackerel icefish population structure, abundance and yield for the area of Division 58.5.2 to the west of 79

The relative impacts of Autolines and Spanish longlines on vulnerable marine ecosystems
Abstract: The Commission aims to protect vulnerable marine ecosystems (VMEs) and has established several Conservation Measures that limit bottom fishing and require data collection by fishing vessels. Members have made substantive and important scientific contributions to support the Commission’s

Robust characterisation of the age structure, growth and recruitment of toothfish in the Macquarie Island and Heard Island and McDonald Islands fisheries
Abstract: Between 2010 and 2012, AAD, Australian Fisheries Management Authority and Australian fishing industry provided funds to conduct high throughput ageing of toothfish otoliths. 5780 otoliths, collected during the 2000-2011 fishing seasons in Division 58.5.2 and outside the CCAMLR area at

Population assessment of Patagonian toothfish in Subarea 48.4
Abstract: This paper presents an update of the assessment of toothfish (Dissostichus spp.) in Subarea 48.4. The Subarea is divided into two management regions and assessed using a CASAL assessment of D. eleginoides in the northern region and a simple Petersen biomass estimate derived for D.
