1. Candidate baseline data for ecosystem indicators in the Ross Sea region

   Abstract:  The research and management plan for the Ross Sea region MPA is currently under development. That plan will identify key research questions that aid in assessing the MPA’s efficacy in achieving its objectives. It may be helpful to have an agreed set of baseline data for key species which

2. Diagnostic tools for Champsocephalus gunnari stock assessments

   Abstract:  Based on a recommendation by WG-FSA in 2017 (para. 3.13), this paper presents examples for a set of standard diagnostics including R code to be used for mackerel icefish (Champsocephalus gunnari) stock assessments presented to WG-FSA. Author(s):  D. Maschette, T. Earl and R. Sinègre

3. Hierarchical monitoring plans to determine patterns of change in the Antarctic Marine Ecosystem

   Abstract:  In this paper we drawn comparison between the existing CCAMLR Ecosystem Monitoring Programme (CEMP) and plans to develop Research and Monitoring Plans for Marine Protected Areas. We recall the outcomes of the CEMP Review in 2003, and as a result highlight the intensity of monitoring

4. An experimental approach for the Antarctic krill fishery: advancing management and conservation through the use of Krill Reference Areas and Krill Fishing Areas

   Abstract:  We review reasons why the fishery for Antarctic krill is challenging to manage and consider ways in which management could be improved, whilst responsible and precautionary harvesting continues. We propose an experimental framework to help improve the scientific basis for management.

5. Developing the risk assessment framework for the Antarctic krill fishery in Area 48

   Abstract:  Recognising that CM 51-07 is scheduled to lapse at the end of the 2020/2021 fishing season, we outline a plan of work to engage with the CCAMLR community to move towards refining the krill risk assessment framework. WG-EMM has previously offered advice about how the risk assessment might

6. The vision for a Southern Ocean Observing System

   Abstract:  The Southern Ocean is fundamentally important to the Earth system, influencing global climate, biogeochemical and ecological cycles. Limited observations suggest the Southern Ocean is changing, yet chronic under-sampling makes the causes and consequences of such changes difficult to

8. Long term movements and activity patterns of an Antarctic marine apex predator: the leopard seal

   Abstract:  Leopard seals are an important Antarctic apex predator that can affect marine ecosystems through local predation. Here we report on the successful use of micro geolocation logging sensor tags to track the movements, and activity, of four leopard seals for trips of between 142-446 days

9. Cruise Report – Research Project: Demersal finfish distribution, abundance, and their biological characteristics in Statistical Subareas 48.1 (northern area) and 48.2

   Abstract:  A finfish survey was completed using bottom trawl fishing gear according to a random stratified sampling design between 50 and 500 m on shelf areas of Subarea 48.1 (Elephant Island) and Subarea 48.2 (South Orkney Island). The sampling stations were set in approximately the same

10. The preliminary report on the survey in Subarea 48.2 in 2018 (the fourth year of the planned 5-year-old investigations)

    Abstract:  The fourth year survey and observations of Dissostichus spp. in statistical subarea 48.2 on board the Ukrainian vessel SIMEIZ were conducted in accordance with the recommendations of the Scientific Committee and Commission. The fourth year survey design was slightly amended in comparison
