1. Determination of a statistically based survey area suitable for hydroacoustic stock assessment of Euphausia superba in the Elephant Island, King George Island, Bransfield Strait area

Using only sub-area biomass leads to an ambiguous interpretation ... of the data as to whether high or law standing stock is due to low production (ie. "good" year vs ... . “bad” year) or differential effects of migration. Using the total of both sub-areas the survey area can ...
