Proposed revision to the estimation of fisheries footprints
Abstract: A revised approach to the estimation of longline fisheries footprints is presented. The ... method uses a data-derived estimate of the uncertainty around the locations of longlines to define a ... grid. The proportion of the area of each grid cell that is covered by buffered lines is then used as a ... footprint index.

Concordance of inter-annual fluctuations in densities of krill around South Georgia and Elephant Islands: biological evidence of same-year teleconnections across the Scotia Sea
Abstract: Acoustic estimates of the densities of Antarctic krill, Euphausia superba, in areas ... interestingly, the magnitudes of abundance and between-year gradients of change of abundance at each site were ... mirrored by those at the other location; for example, 1991 and 1994 were years of very low krill density at ... similarities suggests that densities of krill at both locations are directly linked, and may be impacted by the ...
