1. A quantified Bayesian maximum entropy estimate of Antarctic krill abundance across the Scotia Sea and in small-scale management units from the 2000 CCAMLR survey

   Abstract:  We present the results of an alternative method of estimating krill abundance, and ... producing maps of krill distribution, from the data collected during the 2000 CCAMLR survey of the Scotia ... Sea. Using a probabilistic Bayesian Maximum Entropy (MaxEnt) technique, density values for the ... unsurveyed off-transect portions of the survey area were found by interpolation, and thus values for total ...

2. A RISK ASSESSMENT TO ADVISE ON STRATEGIES FOR SUBDIVIDING A PRECAUTIONARY CATCH LIMIT AMONG SMALL-SCALE MANAGEMENT UNITS DURING STAGE 1 OF THE STAGED DEVELOPMENT OF THE KRILL FISHERY IN SUBAREAS 48.1, 48.2, AND 48.3.

   Abstract:  We used Foosa and the reference set of parameterizations developed by Watters et al ... . (2008) to assess the risks and tradeoffs associated with various management strategies for subdividing ... the precautionary krill catch limit among SSMUs in Area 48. Our methodological approach follows ... directly from specifications made by the WG-SAM and the WG-EMM. We predict that the tradeoffs inherent in ...

3. Assessment models for Antarctic toothfish (Dissostichus mawsoni) in the Ross Sea including data from the 2006/07 season

   Abstract:  We provide an update of the Bayesian sex and age structured population stock assessment ... model for Antarctic toothfish (Dissostichus mawsoni) in the Ross Sea (Subareas 88.1 and SSRUs 88.2A–B ... ), using revised catch, catch-at-age, and tag-recapture data for the 2007 season. The updated reference ... model resulted in a slightly lower estimate of initial biomass than the 2006 base case. The inclusion of ...

5. Characterising the preferred at-sea habitats used by chinstrap penguins and the fishery for Antarctic krill: slow-flowing, nearshore waters over shallow bathymetry

   Abstract:  We show that the preferred habitat models developed by Warwick-Evans et al. (2017) for ... chinstrap penguins breeding at the South Orkney Islands, can be modified to predict the at-sea distribution ... of chinstraps breeding at the South Shetland Islands, based on the distance from the colony, and the ... bearing to the shelf edge, adjusting for the at-sea density of Pygoscelis penguins from other colonies ...

8. An interpretation of the growth of the Adelie penguin rookery at Cape Royds, 1955-1990

   Abstract:  The population dynamics of the Cape Royds rookery were modelled by computer, in order ... to determine the probable causes of the dramatic increase since 1980 in the numbers of Adelie ... penguins, Pygoscelis adeliae, breeding in the Ross Sea region, Antarctica. Variations in the extent of sea ... -ice around the rookery during incubation and chick rearing cannot feasibly explain the population ...
