1. Latitudinal variation of demersal fish assemblages in the western Ross Sea

   Abstract:  Demersal fishes were sampled using a large fish trawl during two surveys carried out in February and March 2004 and 2008 in the Ross Sea, and around seamounts and islands just to the north at 66°S. The distribution and abundance of 65 species collected in these surveys were examined to

2. The Patagonian toothfish: biology, ecology and fishery

   Abstract:  Patagonian toothfish (Dissostichus eleginoides) is a large notothenioid fish that supports valuable fisheries throughout the Southern Ocean. D. eleginoides are found on the southern shelves and slopes of South America and around the sub-Antarctic islands of the Southern Ocean. Patagonian

5. Further improvements in data quality (short note)

   Abstract:  ABSTRACT Two new procedures are currently been developed by the Secretariat to further improve data quality: (1) validation of species’ spatial distributions; and (2) visualisation of data from single fishing trips. Both procedures are outlined. Author(s):  Secretariat Title:  Further

6. 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

7. Update on Patch v2: a simulation program in R for evaluating spatial management strategies to conserve structure and function of ecosystems

   Abstract:  Version 2 of Patch is available. Patch is a simulation program in R for evaluating spatial management strategies to conserve structure and function of ecosystems. Patch has been defined specifically for evaluating strategies to manage bottom fisheries to avoid significant adverse impacts

8. Linking predator and prey behaviour: contrasts between Antarctic fur seals and macaroni penguins at South Georgia

   Abstract:  Antarctic fur seals Arctocephalus gazella and macaroni penguins Eudyptes chrysolophus are the two main land-based krill Euphausia superba consumers in the northern Scotia Sea. Using a combination of concurrent at sea (predator observations, net hauls and multi-frequency acoustics), and

9. A preliminary assessment of age and growth of eel cod (Muraenolepis sp.) and violet cod (Antimora rostrata) in the Ross Sea, Antarctica

   Abstract:  Samples of an eel cod (Muraenolepis sp.) and violet cod (Antimora rostrata) were obtained from the bycatch of the longline fishery for toothfish (Dissostichus mawsoni and D. eleginoides) in the Ross Sea, Antarctica. Counts of zones visible in sectioned otoliths were used to estimate
