2. CEMP INDICES: 2008 UPDATE

   Abstract:  The CCAMLR Ecosystem Monitoring Program (CEMP) uses indices derived from data on indicator species collected by standard methods in the three Integrated Study Regions of the Convention Area. Each year the Secretariat updates the standardised index values and provides a summary of trends

4. REFERENCE OBSERVATIONS FOR VALIDATING AND TUNING OPERATING MODELS FOR KRILL FISHERY MANAGEMENT IN AREA 48

   Abstract:  In 2007 WG-SAM defined a set of reference observations for validating and tuning proposed models to evaluate krill catch allocation options for Area 48 (the SAM calendar). The observations, which were endorsed by WG-EMM, were largely qualitative and relative. We used available data to

5. DEVELOPING MODELS OF ANTARCTIC MARINE ECOSYSTEMS IN SUPPORT OF CCAMLR AND IWC

   Abstract:  Ecosystem models are being developed to explore a range of issues globally. This paper is currently in draft form open to comment and is being developed to provide an introduction to the CCAMLR-IWC Workshop to review input data for Antarctic marine ecosystem models. It summarises

6. POTENTIAL REQUIREMENTS FOR SCIENTIFIC DATA FROM THE KRILL FISHERY

   Abstract:  CCAMLR has agreed that there is a requirement for systematic observation from the krill fishery, however, current levels of observer coverage are not distributed evenly across years, regions or vessels. The number of observer days as a proportion of the number of days fished varied

7. Catch Uncertainty in Krill Fisheries

   Abstract:  Catch uncertainty is a component of uncertainty that is not routinely considered by CCAMLR. However, given the currently reported variability in conversion factors for krill, a nominal reported catch of 600 000t could actually represent a catch in ‘green weight’ of 2.5 million tonnes.

9. MULTIPLE TIME SCALES OF VARIABILITY IN THE KRILL POPULATION AT SOUTH GEORGIA

   Abstract:  The South Georgia region supports a high biomass of krill that is the subject to high inter-annual variability. The lack of a self-sustaining krill population at South Georgia means that understanding the mechanism underlying these observed population characteristics is essential to a

10. Short note: By-catch of fishes caught by the krill fishing vessel Niitaka Maru in the South Georgia area (August 2007)

    Abstract:  Scientific observation on the species composition and abundance of fishes incidentally caught during Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba DANA) fisheries by F/V Niitaka Maru (5200t) were made from 6 August to 30 August to the north of South Georgia Is. Among 87 net hauls quantitatively
