1. Adélie penguins foraging behaviour and krill abundance along the Wilkes and Adélie Land coasts, Antarctica

   Abstract:  The foraging behaviour of Adélie Penguins Pygoscelis adeliae was studied simultaneously at Shirley Island (SI) near Casey Station and at Petrel Island (PI) at Dumont D'Urville during the 1995/96 breeding season. The study took place in conjunction with a ship-based krill survey in

2. Detailed distribution of krill fishing around South Georgia

   Abstract:  The distribution of kri!! harvesting effort and associated catch rates has previously only been available to the scientific community in the form of sub-area or fine-scale(0.5 ° latitude by 1 ° longitude) recorded statistics. Earlier analyses of these data have shown this was a shelf

5. Review of activities in monitoring marine debris in the CAMLR Convention Area

   Abstract:  In 2012 data on beach surveys, debris associated with seabird colonies, marine mammal entanglements and hydrocarbon soilings were received from South Africa, the United Kingdom, and Uruguay.  Non-fishing items such as plastics, packaging materials and wood remain the most common type of

6. Population assessment of Antarctic toothfish in Subarea 48.4 using tag-recapture method

   Abstract:  The stock of Antarctic toothfish in the CCAMLR subarea 48.4 was estimated using as the Petersen method as  640 tonnes. Application of the harvest rate used for D. eleginoides in Subarea 48.3 (γ = 0.038) gives yields of 24 t for the Antarctic toothfish in the region vs. previous

7. Deployment and recovery of an archival tag on an Antarctic toothfish in the Ross Sea

   Abstract:  Data from electronic archival tags are often used to characterise movement and migration patterns in fishes. Understanding these movement patterns is one of the key information needs for the assessment and management of Antarctic toothfish. We deployed 4 pop-off satellite archival tags

8. Modelling the circumpolar distribution of Antarctic toothfish (Dissostichus mawsoni) habitat suitability using correlative species distribution modelling methods

   Abstract:  Understanding and predicting the distribution of Antarctic toothfish (Dissostichus mawsoni) habitat suitability at different spatial and temporal scales can make an important contribution to CCAMLR’s management of this species. In this paper the use of Maxent models with fishery catch

9. Cetaceans as indicators of historical and current changes in the East Antarctica ecosystem

   Abstract:  Changes in the Antarctic ecosystem have been triggered by anthropogenic and natural factors. This paper reviews the scientific information of whales that could be indicative of changes in the East Antarctica ecosystem in the context of two hypotheses, the ‘krill surplus’ hypothesis in

10. Length-weight relationships of six fish species associated with krill fishery in the Atlantic sector of the Southern Ocean

    Abstract:  Length-weight relationships (LWRs) of six fish species in the Southern Ocean, which commonly associated with Antarctic krill fishery, were determined. Samples were collected with Chinese krill trawler (codend mesh size 2 cm) in the Atlantic sector of the Southern Ocean from January to
