2. A suggested bottom trawling survey on the Ob and Lena Banks

   Abstract:  The paper presents calculations of water flow velocity through the codend under the assumption that the flow is uniform and equal on its entire surface. The calculations were made for different ratios of cod end length to its diameter, mesh bar length to mesh bar diameter, and for

4. Size variations associated with abundance changes in juvenile Notothenia rossii, observed at Potter Cove, South Shetland Islands, since the end of the fishery in the area

   Abstract:  Samples of fish collected from 1983 to 1992 at Potter Cove, King George Island, South Shetland Islands, are used to study the decline in abundance previously reported fro fjord Notothenia rossii, in association with changes in the size and age structure of the juvenile population. Mean

5. The early life history and the onset of scale formation in the Patagonian toothfish, Dissostichus eleginoides Smitt, 1898

   Abstract:  Patagonian toothfish, Dissostichus eleginoides, spawn in July to September. Hatching is likely to occur in October/November. Scales do not start to form before the fish are 64-74 mm long. It is far from being resolved when the first 'winter ring' is formed. Available

6. The Dissostichus eleginoides fishery in Division 58.5.1 (Kerguelen Islands)

   Abstract:  The Kerguelen fishery (trawlers and long-liners) of Dissostichus eleginoides is analyzed in the ligth of the knowledge of life cycle of the species. Catches reach a similar cumulative value that in South Georgia subarea (48-3). Fishing grounds and fishing methods have been separated and

8. On the status of mesopelagic fish (myctophidae) in the Southern Ocean ecosystem

   Abstract:  Analysis and synthesis of results of Russian and foreign research into the trophic relationships of myctophids demonstrate that this group of mesopelagic fish plays a significant role in the community of marine organisms of the Southern Ocean. The trophic status of myctophids has been
