2. FIELD IDENTIFICATION GUIDE TO HEARD ISLAND AND MCDONALD ISLAND (HIMI) BENTHIC INVERTEBRATES

   Abstract:  At CCAMLR-XXVI the Working Group on Fish Stock Assessment (WG-FSA) noted a lack of specific reference material for the identification of benthic invertebrates in areas specific to which observers carry out their activities (SC-CAMLR-XXVI: Annex 5, paragraph 6.32). To improve the standard

4. EXPECTED TAG RECAPTURE RATES FROM NEW AND EXPLORATORY FISHERIES FOR DISSOSTICHUS SPP.

   Abstract:  Tag recapture rates in new and exploratory Dissostichus spp. fisheries in the southern Indian Ocean sector of the CCAMLR area are examined. In particular, the potential for tagging programs in new and exploratory fisheries to yield sufficient data to be of use in determining TAC’s in the

5. A RISK MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORK FOR AVOIDING SIGNIFICANT ADVERSE IMPACTS OF BOTTOM FISHING GEAR ON VULNERABLE MARINE ECOSYSTEMS

   Abstract:  CCAMLR adopted a new conservation measure in 2007 (CM 22-06) to ensure that significant adverse impacts of bottom fishing gear on Vulnerable Marine Ecosystems (VMEs) are avoided. Due to the high levels of uncertainty surrounding both the evidence of VME presence and the consequences of
