Decadal trends in the South Georgia demersal fish assemblage
on the Shag Rocks and South Georgia Shelf region between 1986 and 2013. Consistent hotspots of fish ... biomass were seen across survey years. Species counts were highly variable across the shelf region and ... appeared to be linked to habitat type. Low diversity in species was seen consistently over the Shag Rocks ... shelf. There was no detectable change in species composition across the region over three decades. Eight ...

Development of a spatially-explicit minimum realistic model for Antarctic toothfish (Dissostichus mawsoni) and its main prey (Macrouridae and Channichthyidae) in the Ross Sea
Abstract: To explore the potential effects of the toothfish fishery on the population dynamics of ... spatially explicit model using a predator-prey suitability model for the Ross Sea Region. We model the age ... predation mortality (M2), in addition to fishing mortality (F) on all three species. The model suggests that ... the predation release caused by the fishery effect on toothfish abundance is greater than the direct ...

A circumpolar pelagic regionalisation of the Southern Ocean
Abstract: This short note describes a circumpolar, pelagic regionalisation of the Southern Ocean ... south of 40°S, based on sea surface temperature, depth, and sea ice information. The results show a ... series of latitudinal bands in open ocean areas, consistent with the oceanic fronts. Around islands and ... continents, the spatial scale of the patterns is finer, and is driven by variations in depth and sea ice. The ...
