Descriptive analysis of the toothfish (Dissostichus spp.) tagging programme in Subareas 88.1 & 88.2 for the years 2000–01 to 2010–11
Abstract: Descriptive analyses of the toothfish tagging programme in Subareas 88.1 and 88.2 are ... updated, including summaries of data for the 2011 season. Overall, a total of 28 458 Antarctic toothfish ... recaptured since 2001. In recent years, most vessels have achieved or exceeded the target tagging rate of one ... toothfish per tonne of catch in the Ross Sea region. Tag recapture data showed that most fish are recorded ...

Oxygen and carbon stable isotopes in otoliths record spatial isolation of Patagonian toothfish (Dissostichus eleginoides)
otoliths of oceanic fish can resolve water masses and geographic areas, promising a powerful multivariate ... side of a population boundary, and otolith δ18O and δ13C values were measured to see if they could ... distinguish South American-caught fish from those taken in the Antarctic. Values of δ18O and δ13C predicted ... prior evidence of population isolation. Values of δ18O in the otoliths reflected ambient values as well ...
