1. Development of methods for evaluating the management of benthic impacts from longline fishing using spatially explicit production models

   Abstract:  An important management objective for CCAMLR in the high seas region of the Antarctic is to develop appropriate methods of monitoring and managing impacts of bottom fisheries on vulnerable marine ecosystems (VMEs). We describe a spatially explicit production model that can be used to

2. Revised impact assessment framework to estimate the cumulative footprint and impact on VME taxa of New Zealand bottom longline fisheries in the Ross Sea region

   Abstract:  In 2008-2009 New Zealand developed an impact assessment framework to estimate the likely impacts of bottom longline fishing on vulnerable benthic invertebrate taxa, termed Vulnerable Marine Ecosystems (VMEs), consistent with the requirements of Conservation Measure 22-06 (Bottom fishing

3. Towards a Minimum Realistic Model for investigating trophic relationships between Antarctic toothfish and demersal fish in the Ross Sea, Antarctica

   Abstract:  We report on progress towards developing a Minimum Realistic Model for investigating trophic relationships between Antarctic toothfish (Dissostichus mawsoni) and four groups of demersal fish in the Ross Sea, Antarctica. These demersal fish are known to form a part (in some cases a

4. plotImage – software for producing augmented image plots of spatially referenced data

   Abstract:  Software is presented for the automated production of standardised image plots of spatially referenced data. While developed to satisfy the specific requirements of WG-FSA, the routines have been developed to be as generic as possible and may be useful for displaying a wide range of data

5. Fisheries risks to the population viability of black petrel (Procellaria parkinsoni)

   Abstract:  Data on the main population of black petrel (Procellaria parkinsoni), which breeds on Great Barrier Island, were analysed. Three types of data were available. The most useful was abundance data, from which it was possible to infer that the population was probably increasing at a rate

6. Comparison of age- and length-based harvest control rules for the South Georgia icefish (Champsocephalus gunnari) fishery

   Abstract:  An age-based operating model was constructed and used to derive an initial numbers at age vector for the population. An age-based harvest control rule was then applied using the operating model dynamics and assuming perfect knowledge of the resource (initial numbers at age, maturity and

7. A bathymetric data framework for conservation in the Ross Sea region

   Abstract:  Bathymetric data are currently used inter alia to define management boundaries, implement conservation measures, allocate catch among areas, estimate spatial impacts due to fishing, and inform ecosystem-based management through bioregionalisation. Several data sources for bathymetric

9. The composition, abundance and reproductive characteristics of the demersal fish fauna in the Elephant Island–South Shetland Islands region and at the tip of the Antarctic Peninsula (CCAMLR Subarea 48.1) in March–early April 2012

   Abstract:  A bottom trawl survey for demersal finfish was undertaken by Germany aboard R/V ‘ Polarstern ’ around Elephant Island, the South Shetland Islands and at the tip of the Antarctic Peninsula from 17 March to 5 April 2012. In this paper we provide information on species composition, biomass,

10. Antarctic Ocean Legacy: protection for the East Antarctic coastal region

    Abstract:  One of the 19 regions identified by the Antarctic Ocean Alliance (AOA) in October 2011 for the designation of marine protection is the coastal region of East Antarctica. The following Background Paper summarises the Report, Antarctic Ocean Legacy: Protection for the East Antarctic
