Species variability and population structure of Euphausiacea in Admiralty Bay (King George Island; South Shetland Islands) during Antarctic summer
Abstract: The main component of zooplankton in Antarctic pelagic waters, apart from copepods or salps, are specimens representing euphausiids. In fjordic areas like Admiralty Bay, data concerning krill is still scarce and fragmentary, despite the fact that those organisms are a significant element

Variability of krill fishery operations in Subarea 48.2 in relation to fishing methods: spatial–temporal distribution of CPUE and of fishing efforts
Abstract: The author continue to analyze krill fishery data for understanding fishery operations in Subarea 48.2 with special attention to the period 2006-2011 which is characterized by the highest values of standardized CPUE indices in the Subarea 48.2 for the last 25 years. The paper provides

An assessment of the use of ocean gliders to undertake acoustic measurements of zooplankton: the distribution and density of Antarctic krill in the Weddell Sea
Abstract: A calibrated 120 kHz single-beam echo-sounder was integrated into an ocean glider and deployed in the Weddell Sea, Southern Ocean. The glider was deployed for two short periods in January 2012, in separate survey boxes on the continental shelf to the east of the Antarctic Peninsula, to

Short paper to CCAMLR on the ICED Southern Ocean food webs and scenarios workshop: ICED information paper for CCAMLR WG-EMM
Abstract: The ICED programme is investigating how climate change might impact Southern Ocean ecosystems in order to help inform management of Southern Ocean fisheries. As part of this ICED convened a workshop in November 2013 on “Southern Ocean food webs and scenarios of change”, and is currently

Developing high-resolution hydrodynamic models of the shelf regions around South Georgia and the South Orkney Islands
Abstract: Many of the key oceanographic and ecological processes that determine the structure and functioning of ecosystems in the regions around South Georgia and the South Orkney Islands operate over small scales of <10 km. This paper reports the initiation of a project to develop high

Interannual variability in Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) density at South Georgia, Southern Ocean: 1997 – 2013
Abstract: This paper, now in press in ICES Journal of Marine Science, presents krill density estimates for a 17 year time series of acoustic surveys of the Western Core Box at South Georgia. Krill targets were identified in acoustic data using the approved CCAMLR protocol, that is using a multi
