1. Information report on the age determination methods of toothfish Dissostichus spp.

   Abstract:  The document presents the experience of the age determination of toothfish of the genus Dissostichus by recording structures (otoliths). Sampling processing is carried out on the basis of annual data collected in the CCAMLR Convention Area. The equipment used, the procedure for

2. Annual report of research fishing operations at Division 58.4.4b in 2016/17 fishing season

   Abstract:  This paper represents the annual report of a multi-member longline survey on Patagonian toothfish (Dissostichus eleginoides) at Division 58.4.4b in 2016/17 fishing season by France and Japan. The data set, C2 and Observer data, was provided by the CCAMLR Secretariat on the 20th April

3. Annual report of research fishing operations at Subarea 48.6 in 2016/17 fishing season

   Abstract:  This paper represents the annual report of a multi-member longline survey on Antarctic toothfish (Dissostichus mawsoni) at Statistical Subarea 48.6 for 2016/17 fishing season by Japan and South Africa. The data set, C2 and Oｂserver data, was provided by the CCAMLR Secretariat on the 20th

4. Abundance and richness of key Antarctic seafloor fauna correlates with modelled food availability

   Abstract:  Most seafloor communities at depths below the photosynthesis zone rely on food that sinks through the water column. However, the nature and strength of this pelagic–benthic coupling and its influence on the structure and diversity of seafloor communities is unclear, especially around

5. Modelling Movement of Antarctic Krill (MMAK): the importance of retention, dispersal and behaviour for krill distribution – a project update

   Abstract:  This paper provides an update on the joint UK-Norway MMAK project, funded by the Antarctic Wildlife Research Fund, to improve current understanding of the regional and local-scale processes that influence the distribution of Antarctic krill in CCAMLR Area 48, focussing in particular on

6. Coastal weather drives foraging behaviour of chinstrap penguins, Pygoscelis antarctica

   Abstract:  There is increasing interest in using higher-trophic level predators as ecosystem indicators because their performance is presumed to be linked to the overall function of the ecosystem that supports them. In the southwest Atlantic sector of the Southern Ocean, Antarctic krill (Euphausia

7. Update: Rapid unsupervised automated krill density estimation from fishing vessels (RAPID-KRILL)

   Abstract:  The RAPID-KRILL project is funded by the Antarctic Wildlife Research Fund to develop at-sea automated processing of acoustic data on fishing and research vessels. An update on the project progress is presented here, including an overview of the data processing methods. Author(s):  S.

8. Precision of growth band determination from eyestalk sections of Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) preserved in formalin

   Abstract:  Age information for commercial fish species is crucial to fishery management. Age information for Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) will be important for stock assessment modeling and future feedback management of krill fisheries. Samples stored in 70% ethanol provide an opportunity to

9. Integrating Climate and Ecosystem Dynamics in the Southern Ocean (ICED) programme: Preliminary report of the ICED–CCAMLR Projections Workshop, 5 to 7 April 2018

   Abstract:  Climate change will alter the structure and functioning of Southern Ocean ecosystems and affect the ecosystem services they provide. The impacts of climate change will require development of conservation and management strategies that anticipate and adapt to potential changes in krill

10. Protocols for trawl sampling, recording of biological data, and hydrography for the 2019 International synoptic krill survey in Area 48

    Abstract:  Experience gained through participation in international programmes like BIOMASS and the CCAMLR 2000 Survey has demonstrated that standardization of equipment and methods is one of the most crucial steps for any successful work during the field sampling period and later analytical work.
