4. Diseases and parasites of penguins

   Abstract:  The study of diseases in wild penguins is important for the identification of endemic ... diseases and the detection of exotic diseases should these occur. It is also important in the understanding ... of the degree to which disease may be expected to influence the results of biological studies ... of disease particularly if it is at the sub clinical level.

5. Results of E.L. Holmberg 1997 fish survey in Subarea 48.3

   Abstract:  The survey comprised 51 bottom trawl hauls taken in subarea 48.3. Of these, one was ... discarded due to net damage. About 80% of the hauls were taken in the shelf of South Georgia Islands (41 ... ) and the remaining in the Shag Rocks area (9); 64% of the hauls were intended as replicates of the ... position of hauls in the previous cruises. Mean densities were obtained considering the spatial aggregation ...

6. An ecosystem-based approach to management: using individual behaviour to predict the indirect effects of Antarctic krill fisheries on penguin foraging

   becoming increasingly prevalent, they require a fuller understanding of how individual behaviour determines ... interactions within and between species. 2. Ecological interactions involving krill are of major importance to ... many species within the Antarctic. Despite extensive knowledge of the ecosystem that they occupy, there ... is still incomplete understanding of the links between species and the effect of environmental ...

8. The role of fish in the Antarctic marine food web: differences between inshore and offshore waters in the southern Scotia Arc and west Antarctic Peninsula

   Abstract:  The role of fish in the Antarctic food web in inshore and offshore waters is analysed ... taking as an example the coastal marine communities of the southern Scotia Arc (South Orkney Islands and ... South Shetland Islands) and the west Antarctic Peninsula. Inshore, the ecological role of demersal fish ... is more important than that of krill. There, demersal fish are major consumers of benthos and also ...
