Further development of a krill fishery simulation model
Abstract: The model of the krill fishery presented in 1993 (wg-Krill-93/14) refined and applied ... catch. Closure of Livingston Island for the breeding period resulted in a 60% reduction in overlap with ... to account for variability in catch rates. The most successful management regime is found to be one ... the model predicts a 90% reduction in overlap with foraging predators, and a 15 to 20% reduction in ...
