STATE OF ANTARCTIC KRILL (EUPHASIA SUPERBA) FISHERIES IN STATISTICAL SUBAREA 48.2 IN 2008
Abstract: The article is based on the data sampled by the authors in the 29th cruise of f/v “Konstruktor Koshkin” (shipowner is the company “Interrybflot”, Sevastopol, Ukraine) in Subarea 48.2 from March till April 2008. The paper has analyzed the distribution of commercial aggregations of krill,

COMPARISON OF THE BIOMASS OF ANTARCTIC KRILL, (EUPHAUSIA SUPERBA), AROUND THE SOUTH SHETLAND AND SOUTH ORKNEY ISLANDS IN THREE YEARS: 1999, 2000 AND 2008
Abstract: Using a combination of techniques, we examine data from three cruises in 1999, 2000 and 2008 to calculate the biomass and demographic characteristics of Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) surrounding the South Orkney and South Shetlands Islands. Net tow data show that length frequency

Comparison of equal-area cylindrical and circular piston transducers
Abstract: Design of sondes for in situ measurement of zooplankton or other scatterers requires choosing among alternative transducer geometries. This contribution addresses the problem of choosing between cylindrical and circular piston transducers by comparing the performance of the two according

FISHING ACTIVITY AND SEABIRD-VESSEL ATTENDANCE NEAR THE NORTHERN ANTARCTIC PENINSULA
Abstract: We conducted a survey to investigate the factors influencing the number of seabirds attending a research vessel during scientific trawling activities near the northern Antarctic Peninsula. Our objective was to assess whether seabirds exhibited differing levels of attendance that may be

COMPARATIVE CHARACTERISTICS OF BASIC BIOLOGICAL PARAMETERS OF TWO TOOTHFISH SPECIES IN HIGH-LATITUDE SEAS OF THE ANTARCTIC
Abstract: Scientific data were obtained during the fishery cruise of Spanish long-liner «Tronio» in the areas of the Ross Sea and the Antarctic continental shelf (statistical subareas 88.1 and 58.4.1) outside the exclusive (marine) economic zones of foreign states, in the period from 5 November,

NEW RECORDS OF DEEP-SEA SKATES (RAJIDAE, CHONDRICHTHYES) FROM THE CROZET ARCHIPELAGO
Abstract: Two species of deep-sea skates (Rajidae, Chondrichthyes) are newly recorded from the slope of the Crozet Archipelago. Specimens are preserved in collections, morpho-anatomical observations and molecular Barcoding are currently in process to identify that species. Author(s): S.P.

AGE ESTIMATION AND LEAD-RADIUM DATING OF ANTARCTIC TOOTHFISH (DISSOSTICHUS MAWSONI)
Abstract: Antarctic toothfish (Dissostichus mawsoni) are subject to an increasingly important commercial fishery in the Southern Ocean, yet many of their life history characteristics, including vital rates, remain unknown. In this study, Antarctic toothfish were aged using otolith age estimation

SPATIAL DISTRIBUTION AND AGE STRUCTURE OF THE ANTARCTIC TOOTHFISH (DISSOSTICHUS MAWSONI) IN THE ROSS SEA, ANTARCTICA
Abstract: The Ross Sea has been geologically characterized by tectonic and glacial processes. These processes have created diverse habitat, including distinct banks and basins. For many fish species the availability of habitat is critical to the long-term viability of the population. Antarctic

CLASSIFICATION GUIDE FOR POTENTIALLY VULNERABLE INVERTEBRATE TAXA IN THE ROSS SEA LONG-LINE FISHERY
Abstract: Conservation Measure 22-06, in the absence of site-specific or other conservation measures to prevent significant adverse impact on vulnerable marine ecosystems, requires specific actions to be taken when evidence of a Vulnerable Marine Ecosystem (VME) is encountered in the course of
