ENTANGLEMENT OF ANTARCTIC FUR SEALS ARCTOCEPHALUS GAZELLA IN MAN-MADE DEBRIS AT BIRD ISLAND, SOUTH GEORGIA DURING THE 2007 WINTER AND 2007/08 BREEDING SEASON
Abstract: Results of the survey of entanglements of Antarctic fur seals Arctocephalus gazella at ... summer (November 2007 to March 2008) are reported here. During the reporting period of 1 April 2007 to 31 ... March 2008 a total of 36 entangled seals were observed. Sixteen and 20 entanglements were observed in ... for 25% of winter and 10% of summer entanglements. During winter, synthetic string/longline material ...

Comparison between the CCAMLR-2000 and KY 1988 surveys on environmental variability of krill in the Scotia Sea, Antarctica
Abstract: We assessed the environmental variability of Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba ... in December 1999. The Antarctic Surface Water mass, consisting of Winter Water and Summer Surface ... Antarctic Surface Water in 2000 reduced southward. Geographical distribution of krill, which approximates ... the area of the Antarctic Surface Water, in 1987/88 extended northward with high density. In contrast ...

A von Bertalanffy growth model for Division 58.5.2 fitted to length-at-age data and a comparison of predicted with observed growth from mark–recapture data
variable probability (VP) sampling of fish that were aged. Sub-sampling of random length frequency (LF ... ) data used to obtain the samples of fish for ageing used length-bin sampling involving a fixed sample ... size per bin. Estimation of the VB parameters used a definition of the maximum likelihood which took ... into account VP sampling due to length-dependent selectivity of trawl fishing and also accounted for ...

A RE-ANALYSIS AND UPDATE OF THE ANTARCTIC KRILL BIOMASS IN THE SOUTH SHETLAND ISLANDS, THROUGH 2011
Abstract: Acoustically based estimates of Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) biomass, and net ... -based estimates of krill density and recruitment are recalculated for the years 1996 through 2011 ... . The time series of acoustic biomass indicate that krill have varied by more than an order of magnitude ... based data show that 2011 was a year of good recruitment, following two years of low recruitment. Krill ...
