The importance of obtaining annual biomass information in CCAMLR Subarea 48.2 to inform management of the krill fishery
Abstract: To support the implementation of both the precautionary and ecosystem approaches to the ongoing management of the Southern Ocean krill fishery, Norway would like SC-CAMLR and its Ecosystem Monitoring and Management Working Group to consider a proposal to obtain annual krill biomass

Ross Sea Biodiversity, Part I: validation of the 2007 CCAMLR Bioregionalisation Workshop results towards including the Ross Sea in a representative network of marine protected areas in the Southern Ocean
Abstract: This report provides the scientific basis, validating the results of the CCAMLR Bioregionalization Workshop (2007) as well as the report of ASOC (2010), for identifying the Ross Sea as one of 11 areas deserving close scrutiny for inclusion in a network of marine protected areas. CCAMLR

Ross Sea Bioregionalisation, Part II: Patterns of co-occurrence of mesopredators in an intact polar ocean ecosystem
Abstract: We report results of analyses of niche occupation among mesopredators in the Ross Sea region, Antarctica, considering three important components: 1) projected distribution and overlap across the surface of the ocean, 2) capacity to utilize differing amounts of the water column (foraging

High densities of pterobranchs and sea pens encountered at sites in the South Orkney Islands (Subarea 48.2): two potential VMEs
Abstract: High densities of pterobranchs (Phylum Hemichordata: Class Pterobranchia) and sea pens (Phylum Cnidaria: Order Pennatulacea), two vulnerable marine ecosystem (VME) indicator taxa, were encountered at sites on the shelf of the eastern South Orkney Islands. The details of these encounters,

Review of Russian investigations of krill escape through the meshes of commercial trawls: approaches to estimating gross removal at krill fishery
Abstract: In this study the review of Russian investigations of krill escapement through the trawl netting fulfilled by means of instrumental (acoustic observations, underwater observations, method of fine-meshed chafers) and analytical methods are presented. The main factors affected on krill

Monitoring krill larvae at the Weddell-Scotia confluence
Abstract: Large concentrations of early (Calyptopes I to Furcilia III) larvae are consistently detected at the Weddell Scotia Confluence due to the presence of upwelling of larvae completing their developmental ascent. A number of quantitative variables reflect this phenomenon. As the position of

Recommendations on estimating krill escape mortality during fishing operations: the problems and approaches
Abstract: The task to estimate the escape mortality of krill during the fishing operation assigned by Scientific Committee requires assessment of the total krill passed through the rope and netting parts of trawl and krill amount appeared unviable in the process of escapement. The recommendations
